The E.D.G.E. Mart, held at the Lannom Center from 8:30 a.m. until 3 p.m., on Saturday, Aug. 24, featured local small business vendors, including two new entrepreneurs who launched their new business ventures at the event. Products ranged from original pottery to gourmet dog treats. Wings Fitness and Paten Lee Gillihan Photography each chose the event to make a splash in the local community. The first offers fitness wear that encourages women to 'exercise their faith.' The latter, original fine art photography. Each booth offered door prizes to residents attending the luncheon.
