Temporary phone # for Charlotte Ave. Great Escape

Hey, folks-

Our phone is temporarily out at The Great Escape Charlotte Avenue Superstore- but there‘s a temporary number that you can reach us at while repairs are being made:

615-383-1771

Unfortunately, you may experience a busy signal at times during periods of greatest call volume- since we ordinarily have 4 lines to take our calls on (the main one rolls over to the other three when the system is functioning properly)- but now only have one until repairs are finished (which is estimated to be complete by the end of Saturday, 12/12.)

We apologize for any inconvenience that this may cause for you.
