Peggy Edmond, owner of King’s Variety Store.<br />
King’s Variety Store has everything<br />
from candy to toys, and party<br />
essentials to school supplies<br />
“The great thing about being in a small<br />
community is working with your customers who<br />
eventually become your friends,” Edmond says of<br />
Little Chute. “I don’t think in bigger areas there’s<br />
that togetherness and closeness gained.”<br />
Over the last decade, Edmond has seen<br />
businesses come and go.<br />
“There has been a lot of growth in the last five<br />
years even,” she says. “I hope it continues to flourish<br />
like it has in the past.”<br />
Longtime Little Chute business owners like<br />
Edmond have been puzzled by the village’s difficulty<br />
to maintain storefronts downtown. They hope new<br />
arrivals like The Flying Dutchman and Seth’s<br />
Coffee and sturdy shops like Simple Simon’s Bakery<br />
and Vanderloop Shoes, Inc., continue to flourish<br />
and demonstrate economic opportunity of owning a<br />
business in a small community.<br />
Residents like Peter and Mary Arts, local<br />
business owners, and those driving through Little<br />
Chute are left dreaming of the windmill’s<br />
whooshing sails, sure to wave in neighbors from<br />
Kaukauna, Appleton and other cities far and wide.<br />
