One of the stores that we have to go to is the millinery shop. Where they had their hats made and for special occasions. – Kim Sheppard

That was the place where you would either get some of the best spaghetti or chili in town. – Kim Sheppard and Craig Condie recall the famous family-owned restaurant.

We had a great group that actually were putting on the show. They called the Ottawa Valley Melodiers. – Ron Eady

We sold a lot of decorative crafts as well as craft supplies for people to do it themselves. – Wendy and Roy Dagenais recall their craft store, Thoughts and Things.
