🤠 When your whole night comes together locally…
Last month’s line dancing fit started at Jiggy Mae Boutique — a light pink flutter-sleeve top paired with this floral silk scarf necklace with the prettiest pearl clasp. 💕
Top it off with the cowboy hat I made at a class at West Side Tavern… and off to The Front Porch Bar and Grill I go for a night of line dancing! 💃🤠
And THAT is one of the things we love about our local businesses. You can shop the outfit, take the class, find something fun to do and make a whole night of it — right here in our area.
🛍️ Shop Jiggy Mae for your next fit, and keep an eye on all of our local businesses for upcoming classes, events and experiences. You never know what you'll find — or where it'll take you next!

🥧 Now THIS is the kind of teamwork we can get behind! 🥰
Our Chamber members are working together to accomplish something very important: making sure even MORE people have access to dessert. 🙌
This weekend, you can find Town & Country Cafe’s German Chocolate Pie in TWO places:
🍫 Town & Country Café in Kellogg
🍫 Sippi’s Pub & Grub Wabasha
When Chamber members team up, apparently delicious things happen. ❤️
So whether your weekend takes you to Kellogg or Wabasha… there’s pie waiting for you. And really, what's to stop you from going to both places. Pie twice? We promise that we won't tell! 🥧😂

🍂❄️🚤 Behind the scenes, we're always planning something!
SeptOberfest is in full swing, but that doesn’t mean planning stops there! Wabasha's Spooktacular Night and Hunter’s Widow Weekend and Grumpy Old Men Festival AND Wabasha Riverboat Days are all in full planning mode, too. There are activities to organize, prizes to find, details to work out and LOTS of ideas bouncing around behind the scenes!
Right now, our Riverboat Days volunteers are having some fun putting together unique prize baskets for BB&E B-I-N-G-O at the VFW Post 4086, Wabasha, MN on Saturday, November 7 — and when it comes to creating the boozy ones, they know exactly where to go:
🥂 Wabasha Warehouse Liquor!
They’re our local go-to not only for finding just the right bottles, but also for those conversations that start with, “Okay... we have an idea for a basket. What would make this REALLY good?” 😂
We’re grateful for local businesses like Wabasha Warehouse Liquor that help us bring our ideas to life. The support of our local businesses and our fundraising events helps make it possible for us to continue bringing community celebrations, entertainment and free family-friendly activities to the Wabasha-Kellogg Area throughout the year. ❤️
📍 Wabasha Warehouse Liquor
118 Ninth Street East | Wabasha
👀 And speaking of those B-I-N-G-O prizes... want to see what we’re putting together?
🎟️ Get registered for BB&E B-I-N-G-O and SAVE $10 off the at-the-door price to play!
www.wabashamn.org/event/booze-bags-electronics-bingo-2026/
Come play, support Riverboat Days and see what we’ve been dreaming up for the prize tables! 🎉
