Friedman's Army Navy Store, a beloved local business, is set to close its doors after 74 years of serving the community. This affordable surplus store has been a go-to destination for fishing, hunting, and camping gear, as well as military surplus items, for generations. Customers fondly recall visiting the store since their high school days, with some even remembering trips there as children decades ago. The store's selection of fishing lures, baits, and jigs has been praised, though some items may be a bit pricier. Shoppers have also appreciated the wide variety of clothing, including warm and durable socks for women. Despite the challenges of finding petite-sized items, Friedman's has catered to a diverse customer base, including those with a passion for collecting old military uniforms and equipment. The store's knowledgeable staff and commitment to supporting the local community have made it a cherished institution that will be deeply missed.
