🥤🍦 FLOAT TAKING SHAPE IN MIDTOWN GREENSBORO
ITS OPEN NOW.

A former car wash on Battleground Avenue is getting a sweet new purpose!

Float Dirty Soda and Ice Cream is planned for 📍1013 Battleground Ave., part of the former Ready Auto and Ready Gas and Convenience property. Emily Baker and Chase Strange, owners of The Daily Grind in Burlington, are behind the new shop.

🥤 What’s a dirty soda? It’s a nonalcoholic drink made by adding flavored syrups, cream or fruit purees to a soda base.

According to a March 13 Triad Business Journal report, plans include:

🧊 Build-your-own sodas using Coca-Cola products, plus signature combinations inspired by Greensboro.
🍦 Classic soda fountain treats, including egg creams and ice cream floats.
💵 Dirty sodas priced from $4 to $8.
🪑 About 25 indoor seats, with patio seating bringing total capacity to about 50.

🍽️ A separate restaurant, Battleground Butcher Bar, is planned for the property’s larger building.

🚧 The colorful exterior is taking shape. The owners previously anticipated a fall opening, but a current opening date has not been confirmed. Menu prices and seating figures reflect the plans reported in March.

💬 What soda-and-flavor combination would you order?

NOMAD needs you! We are hiring for a Quality Inspector for our 25+ STR properties 🗣️

What does a Quality Inspector do?
They are one of the most important roles at NOMAD. The QI is the last layer of eyes to look at the property after the cleaners have cleaned but prior to the guests arrival, ensuring that EVERYTHING is in its proper place and ready for a 5 Star guest experience.

More details include but are not limited to:
🧽 Closely monitoring the cleanliness of countertops/beds/baseboards/etc. (Example: ensuring the house free of stray hairs or stains on house items, and removing them/cleaning the issue.)
🔧 Fixing or amending small issues when they pop up (example: tightening loose door handles, changing batteries for smoke detectors or door locks, rehanging fallen pictures or wall art)
👀 Detail oriented eyes noticing the small important things (example: making sure the clocks are set to the right time. Checking corners and behind doors for dirt or dander buildup.)
✅ Follow the QI checklist to make sure nothing is forgotten

You will eventually be working alone and creating your own schedule. This position is very flexible but does require at least 3 days a week.

*Must live in Greensboro

There's room to grow in the company! NOMAD is still adding more properties in the area and we would love to have someone on board for the long-haul. Entrepreneurial spirit and Airbnb/STR passion is preferred ❣️❣️

If you or someone you know may be interested, send them our way with the email provided above.

Looking forward to hearing from yall and thank you for the support 🙏🏼
