After 44 years of business, being rebuilt after a fire, and many fond memories by numerous families in and around Owensboro The Baker's Rack in Wesleyan Park Plaza is closing it's doors.
Some of my favorite wedding gifts, baby gifts came from there. I loved just going and looking around!
According to The Baker's Rack Facebook Page they posted this,
