Village Square & Par Mar

Woodford Oil Company began a construction/remodeling project in the last quarter of 2008 at the Chevron station located at Village Square in Elkins, WV with the intention of leasing the property to Par Mar Stores upon completion. The transition into this upgraded facility was a busy process with the designing of wall graphics, picking floor and wall tile, and deciding what material to use for the countertops. Woodford Oil's Todd Woodford along with Par Mar's Sandra Morgenstern were pleased to be able to use several local vendors: floor tiles came from Sonny’s Carpet, Sinsel’s of Philippi installed the granite countertops, and Davis Electric took care of all the electrical work.

After months of hard work and a vision of changing an old structure into something modern, Woodford was excited to join Par Mar on February 20th for a grand opening and ribbon cutting ceremony of PM #34 and Quiznos.
