Whistle Stop Shop, located in the historic Big Four Train Depot at 25 Charles Street, right at the RailRoad tracks, is excited to participate in DMI's First Friday "Spooktacular Event"! We are worth the walk!
Since any gathering here typically involves something to eat, besides plenty of assorted candy for "Trick or Treaters," including the ever popular "Carmel Apple Suckers" while they last, we also brought back our "Decorate a homemade Pumpkin shaped Sugar Cookie" with icing and more!
We already have our mantle set up with a great fall background for your photos with friends & family...with a few optional props to loan!
For folks who would like to shop, we are offering a 10% Discount on our already low priced fall scented candles and tarts!
With four new crafters joining us just this month, there are lots of new items for you to review for potential purchases!
HOURS: Tuesday- Saturday, 10 to 2, plus First Fridays & Special Events!
Family Friendly Service Always!
