Liquor Haven Celebrates 25 Years of Business

If you read the archives this week, you'll see the article that was in the paper 25 years ago on Scott and Gina Simanton purchasing the liquor store. In that article, Gina says that Scott told her he bought her a job.

When asked about that now, Gina says, "Boy did he! And he's still adding to it!"

As for the Liquor Haven, it is in its third building since they bought it.

"The building it was in when we bought it didn't exactly work for what we had planned. So we moved it on the day we bought it to the spot on 2nd Street," Gina said. "We were there for 21 years until we outgrew that place and moved to the current location four years ago."

The Simanton's celebrated their anniversary with the amazing food truck of A.E. Catering outside for a great lunch. Inside, they had cake and cupcakes, along with drawings for prizes.

Gina said, "It's been a scary, sometimes stressful, sometimes frustrating, but overall wonderful experience. I have had the opportunity to work with some amazing people, and our customers are incredibly supportive. We are very grateful for each and every one of them. We are truly blessed and thankful."
