New Spellbound Stories Owners Bring Square Businesses Together
May 9 is set to be a busy day in Macomb, Illinois. In addition to the unveiling of the new Macombopoly statue at 10 a.m. on the Macomb Square, merchants around the Square will be set up for the inaugural Spring Sidewalk Sales event.
The new Spellbound Stories owners, April and Thomas Trias, are making it their mission to get more people to the downtown area, so the couple decided to host a Spring Sidewalk Sales event after it was announced the Spring Market would not be held this year.
Lars Gossel of Gossel's Dog Haus and Aly Sturgis of Sullivan-Taylor Uptown have been working alongside the Trias' to get the new event off the ground, April noted.
The Trias', who took over the Macomb comic book, games and more store in July, have worked with numerous downtown (and a few off-thesquare local) businesses who will be set up from 10 a.m.-3 p.m. Saturday, May 9, with specials, giveaways and more.
