The store's grand opening and ribbon-cutting ceremony is open to the public. Local dignitaries, ambassadors from the Rhinelander Area Chamber of Commerce and other business leaders will attend the celebration.
"We feel blessed for the fantastic opportunity to be a part of the Rhinelander community. Our goal is for customers to experience the exceptional service, selection and value Hobby Lobby offers," stated John Schumacher, assistant vice president of advertising.
