First Friday encourages the community to celebrate in downtown Wabash with monthly themes throughout the year. Come on down for this month’s theme “Flashback Friday” from 5-8 p.m. Friday, March 3rdt.
You will find many deals, food options, and kids’ activities during this event. This month’s theme will focus on the past of downtown Wabash. Not only will many different businesses have deals, steals, and historical facts for you, but First Friday participants should pick up a guide and travel to each featured business to find a fact about the building or business that is currently there. These guides can be picked up at the Welcome Center, Modoc’s Market, and any featured business! Once you have filled out your guide, you can drop it off at any of the featured locations. You will then be entered to win the First Friday Basket loaded with so many local goodies! March’s featured businesses include: Babka’s Polish Pottery, The Curb, the Eclectic Shoppe, Twisted Scissors, Wabash County Historical Museum, and Wabash Pizza King.
Come on downtown and have some fun. We are looking forward to seeing you.
