Old grocery becoming multipurpose entertainment center in Wenona

It will be a multipurpose building available for shows and parties ' Jim Dale looked around his town of 950 people and found no movie house, banquet hall or even a stage for musical events. via Pantagraph

The old grocery store is really taking shape,going to be a cool place to go. Now called the Retro. Rental for all your gatherings,or a night at the movies.Any one else been in there to see it ?? post and let us know what you think.

It sure sounds like a great idea. Too bad Toluca can't take a page from whatever book the people who run Wenona reference to help our town. Toluca...the pimple on the arse of Marshall County!

It is so cool,jimmy showed us around and we will be renting it for our bachelor et, party in May.

What an awesome idea and concept! You've brought this old building back to life again. Love the balcony and VIP section! Can't wait to have a new place to go and something new and fun to do. "The Retro" is going to be the newest and funnest thing for miles. Movie nights (without driving 20 miles) special events and parties for all ages. Good Luck & Best wishes! Hurry and get her done.:)

It's the greatest, booked it for my sons 8th birthday party. All the kids had a blast. We ended up coming back a couple weeks latter for 2 more parties for other kids in his class. The kids liked it so much they all wanted parties up there.

You did a GREAT JOB Jimmy!! Keep up the good work!
