Step back in time by visiting this refurbished country store. Experience "going to the store" of the 1940's rural Page County. The original store was established in the early 1900's and as the population of the community grew, so did the store. Most community's only had one store and in addition to often being the only provider of "store bought goods" and the post office, the country store served other roles, including the social center of the community, as an "exchange bank", community message center, and political club that provided a forum for men in the community.  It was likely to find a wall with every type of notice. These might include local events, elections, auctions, and "wanted posters" for outlaws
