WATERVILLE – In the years since its completion, Parker Square has provided much-needed green space along the Maumee River, with guests of the Roche de Boeuf Festival and holiday events utilizing the area. But the Community Flea Market – which will have its final event of the year on Sunday, Aug. 16 – is the first regular use of the space.
Parker Square is an ideal location for the flea market because customers pushing wheelchairs, walkers or strollers can visit all of the booths while on an even sidewalk, according to market founder Aggie Alt, proprietor of The Old House.
“I wanted to create an opportunity for local businesses to showcase their products and services to the community, and for people to come see the park while doing some shopping,” Alt said.
