WAITSBURG-The first Small Town Big Heart Showcase is headed to Waitsburg this weekend. More than 20 vendors will set up at the Gary Thomas Lot at the corner of Coppei and Preston Avenues on Saturday, July 9, starting at 9:00 a.m.

Sponsored by the Waitsburg Commercial Club, President Kim Smith said she hopes this will become an annual event. Smith said that while the vendor list is already extensive, more businesses may sign on before the weekend rolls around.

Vendors will offer products from home decor to hand-woven jewelry, with no two booths alike. Smith is not only organizing the showcase; she and her family will participate in bringing their businesses to the showcase. Smith Craft offers handmade and retail products, including knives and crafts. Her father, Dean Smith, will bring his two businesses, Smith Horseshoeing and Skyrocket Outdoor Sports.Waitsburg businesses Dusty Britches and A-Ron's Rustic Designs will have booths offering fresh produce, jewelry, soaps, decor, towels, and custom-printed apparel. Mr. Billie Goat will be available for pets, of course!

The Girl Scouts of Waitsburg will be at the showcase selling handmade epoxy crafts, accessories, wreaths, and other handmade items, said Smith. The Commercial Club is excited to welcome Buckin' Tasty, owned by Val Watkins, who will have a selection of smoked cupcakes, brownies, cookies, and chocolate-covered strawberries as unique as Waitsburg.

Other vendors include Blessed to be Mamma of Walla Walla, Baraza Bangles from Yakima, and Kickin' It Crafts from Dixie.

The Gary Thomas lot is located at the corner of Preston and Coppei Avenues, in Waitsburg, across from the Freedom Post drive-through ATM. The showcase is just catacorner from Preston Park and Waitsburg's new splash pad if the sales get too hot to handle.
