There will be a ribbon-cutting ceremony to recognize their presence on Thursday, July 11 at 10:30 a.m. at Laxton’s and 11:00 a.m. at Always Vintage. Located at 187 Chase Street, Laxton’s Automotive provides a much needed service to the area. Josh Laxton will repair your vehicle and tires or install new tires if needed. He offers free pick-up and return service inside the town limits for tire and lube services. His hours are 9-5 Monday-Friday. Laxton said, “I just grew up working on vehicles. As a teen, I had to keep my own vehicle going so I learned a lot.” ___________________________Across town in the historic business district at the former location of Bridgewalk Shops, Lisa Davis has opened “Always Vintage.” This attractive shop is a combination of antiques and collectibles and finds similar to a thrift store. There is a wide variety and surely something for everyone. Davis said, “Family ties brought me to this area.” She likes this kind of work. Her hours are 9-3 Wednesday-Saturday.Mayor Travis Copenhaver said, “We are excited to again welcome new businesses. Please shop local and support them whenever you can.” (Click on photos for larger view)
