PUBLIC FORUM: Annual open house proves successful

Logan’s Landing would like to thank everyone who helped make our 13th annual Downtown Christmas Open House a success! By exchanging donations of food and pet items for tickets and depositing those tickets at participating merchants, many lucky shoppers won great prizes, while supporting local businesses.  

Thanks to the generosity of the community, we collected more than half a ton of food and pet items! These items have been distributed to the Cass County Humane Society, Emmaus Mission Center and the Salvation Army. We are grateful to Cass Area Transit for providing shuttle bus service during the event, and to Cass-Pulaski Community Corrections for setting up the bus stop signs. Special thanks to all the volunteers, especially Event Chair Michelle Dials and Promotion Committee members Sandi Korreckt, Rob McMinn, Jennifer Savini, Greg Packard and Kim English.

Thanks again to our participating merchants: Bodyworks, China Lane, Creative Promotions, Dessert First Catering & More, Domino’s Pizza, Fernbaugh’s Diamonds & Fine Jewelry, The Gray Mill and Graybeal’s Carpet Plus, Harvest Chapel Church, Judy’s GoodLife Emporium, Logansport Boardwalk Café, Loretta’s Therapeutic Massage, Mike Anderson Chrysler-Dodge-Jeep, Minglin Jewelers, The Nest and Tree’s Camera Shop, Once & Again Studio, Pear Tree Gallery, The People’s Winery, Rekindled, Savanah Vintage, Schwering Realty, Superior Auto, The Thrifty Shopper, U-Know Pizza and the Village Peddler.

Congratulations once again to all the prize winners: Michelle Dials, Stacey Donato, Monica Dunn, Joyce Eckelbarger, Marla Evanich, Marsha Galbreath, Jackie Hamilton, Bill Harris, Nancy Hewitt, Ruth Hipsher, Holly Hurlburt, Kim Isaacs, Beth Kinsey, Carol Kinsey, Jasmine Kolher, Maureen Land, Linda Layman, Valerie Looker, Paula Malone, Tiffiny Maloy, Connie McCarthy, Jen Mollencup, Lorna Mollencup, Kathy Mughmaw, Angie Reynoso, Cindy Rozzi, Dana Schroder, Ashley Wilfong and Loryn Wrucke.

We hope to see everybody at next year’s Downtown Christmas Open House!

    As you read this, I’ll be basking in the warm sun on a Florida beach. I’m not sure where you’ll be when reading this, but I’m pretty sure I’ll be coming out the winner. Seems only fair considering I was moving boxes in the rain just a few Sundays ago.

  • WOLFSIE: Writing on the walls

    Sometimes when I am trying to think of an idea for my column, I just stare at the wall. That’s not a bad thing, because on the wall in my home office is a collection of special pieces of memorabi-lia that inspire me to write, reminding me of the talented people I have had the privilege to meet.
