Chantilly, VA- Doors to Chantilly's newest Chick-fil-A officially opened today, June 30, with 100 people walking away with a year of free Chick-fil-A meals, according to a Chick-fil-A spokesperson.

Gently used and new books are being collected at the today until 10:30 p.m. for a book house that will be donated to the Benefit Shelter House, a non-profit organization aimed at ending homelessness.

The 100 people camped over night in the restaurant parking lot at 3454 Historic Sully Way, 24 hours before the grand opening, to win a year of free Chick-fil-A meals.

According to Chick-fil-A, the first 100 celebration is a company tradition that goes back 12 years, during which it has given away nearly $27 million in free food at store grand openings. Rain, snow and extreme temperatures below zero or above 100 do not deter fans who arrive with tents, chairs, TVs, computers and other gear.

The Chick-fil-A store is open Monday through Saturday from 6:30 a.m. to 10 p.m. Like all Chick-fil-A locations, it will be closed on Sunday.
