SUMMERVILLE, S.C., Nov. 11, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- BJ's Wholesale Club today announced a platinum level sponsorship of Summerville DREAM ahead of its new Club opening in the Summerville area.

"BJ's has a strong history of supporting the communities where we live and work," said Kirk Saville, senior vice president of corporate communications at BJ's Wholesale Club. "We're thrilled to be supporting Summerville DREAM and their mission to revitalize historic downtown Summerville."

"We're delighted to have BJ's Wholesale Club as a platinum sponsor," said Michael Lisle, executive director of Summerville DREAM. "Their support will allow us to continue working to improve the quality of life in Summerville through enhancement of our historic downtown.
