Emily Collins, the proprietor of The Root Beer Stande on Woodman, is celebrating her 17th anniversary of owning the business this Friday, July 11th. In sharing her story about acquiring the business she she told us she graduated from Stivers School for the Arts, left Dayton to attend Ohio University, where she received a Bachelors of Fine Arts degree. Upon graduation she returned to Dayton and struggled to find a job where she could use her degree. So she taught part time and worked in the food industry, as she had through high school and college. Her dad, who ran Klosterman Bakery came home one day told her the stand was for sale. Always wanting to own her own business, Emily decided she’d buy the place. So she went to the bank and says they looked at her like she was a crazy 24 year old, but suggested she put a business plan together.

As part of the 17th anniversary celebration they will have footlongs buy one; get one for $1.17. Hanks burgers and dogs are $7.17. Hank’s burgers will be the deal of the day today. Your choice of a hand crafted burger, fries, and a drink for $12.99. We suggest a frosty mug of Rootbeer.
