Freddie’s Party Store: Old-School Wooden Fridges and Owosso Ciders

//

The Amos Gould House Ghost

I’ve heard tell of a peculiar establishment in our town, known as Freddy’s Party Store. While it may not resemble the general stores of my youth, it offers a unique blend of the old and the new.

A particular curiosity of this store is a wooden refrigerator, a relic of times past. Such a device, though uncommon in modern establishments, speaks to the store’s dedication to preserving a touch of our history.

Beyond this antique, Freddy’s offers a wide array of goods, much like a general store of old. One can find a variety of beverages, including spirits, wines, and ciders, both local and from afar. For those with a sweet tooth, the store offers a delightful selection of ice creams, including the intriguing Blue Moon flavor, as well as venison jerky and Amish-made candies.

For refreshment on a warm day, Freddy’s provides a slushy machine, a modern convenience that would have been unheard of in my time. And for those planning a celebration, the store offers a selection of party supplies, making it a one-stop shop for festivities.

Throughout the store, one can find a collection of antiques, offering a glimpse into our town’s past. These items, along with the wooden refrigerator, serve as a reminder of our history while also providing a unique shopping experience.

Freddy’s Party Store is a testament to the evolving nature of our town. It offers a blend of tradition and modernity, preserving a piece of our history while catering to the needs of the present day.
