To our friends in our Charlottesville Community, When Heather and Dani purchased rock paper scissors almost 15 years ago, they were two young whippersnappers ready to make their mark on the stationery and wedding industry. We are so incredibly proud of all that we have accomplished: from being a strong shopping staple on our downtown mall to multiple features in national magazines. The best part has been the people: bearing witness to the hundreds, if not thousands, of life events of our clients (weddings, growing families, and even death—all move us in some shape or form). We have partnered with a wide variety of organizations in our community from schools and nonprofit organizations (such as the CASPCA and The Paramount) to Martha Jefferson Hospital and Friends of Downtown, and have donated countless hours as well as dollars for good causes. We've had our "ups," like childbirth (no really, it’s a great story if you haven’t heard it: Dani was in the operating room with Heather when Wes was born!); and our downs: surviving Dani’s diagnosis of breast cancer at age 30; August 12 and the C'ville heart; not to mention staying afloat during a pandemic (you know, just some little things here and there…), but we've weathered the storm. It's been our privilege and our honor to be a part of the fabric of this incredible community. You have built us up and supported us in return, and we are forever grateful and humbled.As much as we’ve loved creating and growing RPS with all of you, we know it is time for a new visionary to take the helm. It is with a full heart that we would like to introduce you to the new owners of rock paper scissors, come January 19th: Karen and Jonathan Ward. The Wards recently relocated here from Northern Virginia, where Karen spent over 6 years working at a stationery store, so she knows the ropes! It’s time for fresh energy and leadership to guide RPS forward. Karen's passion for pens, paper, and exceptional customer service aligns perfectly with the values we hold dear at RPS. And you may have seen her around the shop already, as she has been getting to know our bridal and stationery clients for the past two months. You will still see familiar smiles from the RPS staff (and we couldn't have done most of this without them, major kudos to our team!) your favorite paper products and RPS' stationery expertise and guidance in motion. So join us in welcoming Karen to our amazing community! She and Jonathan are foodies and love a good cocktail, so we know they will fit in perfectly in this gastronomy-forward town! We are confident that Karen will continue to nurture the vibrant spirit of Rock Paper Scissors and lead it to even greater heights. We can't wait for you to meet her and experience all the exciting new things she has planned for the future! This isn't goodbye, it's just see you around... as fellow loyal RPS customers and friendly faces!
