When Anytime Fitness moved to its new location, Sugar Island Jerk owner Kevin Watts knew it was time to do something.

“When the gym left, it was like a ghost town,” he said.

Over the past year, the Cornerstone Village shopping center has lost several businesses.  Scoops, Day After Day Café, Cornerstone Cleaners and The Trading Post have closed.

According to Watts, traffic in the Liam Avenue strip mall is poor.

“It’s hidden,” he said. “Either I move or shut down.”

Watts believes he offers a unique dining opportunity for Dacula and does not want to close his doors. He hopes his new location in the Dacula Market shopping center close to Kroger and the soon-to-be-open Menchie’s will result in better visibility and greater business.

“It’ll be a better location,” he said.

Once Sugar Island Jerk relocates, only five businesses -- Luigi’s, Rice Station, Cornerstone Dentistry, Beautiful by Christine and Nails Technique -- will remain in Cornerstone Village.

Sugar Island Jerk is not closing, they are moving to the Kroger shopping center just down the road -- and that won't happen until May.

Honestly, retail will never work in that center. It needs to be converted to business suites and medical, or government services.

However, what most people don't realize is that excess abdominal fat in particular, is not only ugly, but is also a dangerous risk factor to your health. Scientific research has clearly demonstrated that although it is unhealthy in general to have excess body fat throughout your body, it is also particularly dangerous to have excess abdominal fat.
