Put Waveland On the Map

Waveland’s first tenant in the Waveland Business Center, Lime Pi, is partnering with Google to put local businesses and Waveland city offices on the map.

Businesses that have complete business information online are twice as likely to be considered reputable by consumers. The more info customers can find online about local businesses (including yours!), the stronger Waveland becomes. Getting all of your business info online is free and easy. Lime Pi will be hosting an event at the Waveland Business Center, 228 Coleman Avenue, Tuesday, October 6 from 1:00 to 2:00 p.m. The first forty businesses to register will receive a “Put Waveland on the Map” Google shirt.

Halloween on Coleman Avenue

The city of Waveland will be hosting their annual Halloween Bash on Coleman Avenue Saturday, October 31 from 4:00 to 7:00 p.m. There will be treats, a cake walk and many other surprises! A new addition to the bash is the costume contest hosted by the Waveland Civic Association. If you are interested in setting up a booth or being a part of the event, please call Waveland City Hall at 228-467-4134.

Haunted Tree on Mollere Drive

If you drive slowly down Mollere Drive in Waveland you might see a haunted tree complete with characters Luther, Chester, and Winnie the Witch. They have taken up residence in the old, dead tree for the second October in a row.

John Impson, who cleans neighbors’ vacant lots (when he is not running track), took a long look at the dead tree and thought he might have fun with it. He delights in decorating the tree for Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas. The owners of the lot are friends in Alaska who are pleased to play some small role in what has become a tradition on the street.
