Business Expo

ELVIS
may have left the building many years ago but he’s coming to Thurmont for one night,
March 19th at the
2010 Business Expo!

Be sure to attend the 6th Annual Thurmont Business Expo, March 19th from 6:00-9:00 p.m. at Catoctin High School. Admission is FREE and with this year’s Viva Las Vegas theme the odds of having a great evening are definitely in your favor! With a ‘full house’ of local vendors your pay out for the evening will be a ‘jackpot’ of information about your local businesses!

Entertainment will include an appearance by Elvis, the Elower Studio Dancers and music
by Wes ‘Liberace’ Hamrick.

Gnarly Artly!

Take a drive past Biggies Bubbles on Carroll Street or the old Library building on Water Street and you can’t miss some amazing original window painting by local artist John ‘Gnarly Artly’ Nickerson. John has lent his considerable talent to help advertise the upcoming Business Expo by painting windows at both locations. At the left John is shown with the Elvis window at Biggies Bubbles.

At the right is the Show Girl window display at the old Library building on Water Street. The art work and lettering were created by John especially for the 2010 Thurmont Business Expo. The windows took almost four days to complete and were done free hand from scale concept designs. There were many steps involved starting with a white base coat and finishing with the intricate details that make the Show Girl and Elvis pop off of the windows. We want to thank John from Gnarly Artly Design Shop for his creative talent and also the Library Board and Biggies Bubbles for providing our artist with a suitable canvas.
