As construction continues at the King Soopers for its store at Table Mesa Drive in Boulder, the store is hosting multiple hiring events to prepare for its eventual reopening.
The store where 10 people were killed in a March 22 mass shooting event has yet to set a reopening date. Officials previously said the goal was to reopen the store this year.
Officials said 50% of the stores employees have committed to return but they are in need of additional staff.
"In anticipation of the reopening and to ensure that these associates have the support they need, we will begin staffing this location," officials said in a news release Saturday morning.
The hiring events will be held at King Soopers' Boulder stores and the #BoulderStrong Resource Center. The events will be held:
