Wanamakers General Store

In April 1979 Claude Reinhart’s heirs sold the building to David and Deborah Bond, who re-opened as Wanamakers General Store. After twenty-five years of hard work, David and Debbie closed the store in November 2003 and moved away from busy Rt.143.

The building sat largely unoccupied until 2007 when Tim and Arian (Annie) Hungaski, recognizing the community’s need for a good general store, purchased and renovated Wanamakers. They reopened the doors once more in 2008.

In 2011 Kyra Hendricks came on board as manager, and in 2013 she took on a part ownership role.

In January 2018, Kyra Hendricks became the sole owner of Wanamakers. She is passionate about creating a fun local place for people to gather, slow down and make connections.  She also remains dedicated to supporting other local businesses and farmers, and sources as many products locally as she can. Kyra has tried to preserve the charm and history of the original building while creating a fun and unique shopping environment.
