Today, we pay tribute to Staff Sergeant Richard J. Swiger by dedicating our building in his honor. Born in Clarksburg, West Virginia, he sacrificed his life in battle, saving hundreds, if not thousands, of troops by redirecting his tank and two others after they had cleared the danger zone. This maneuver enabled the tanks to unleash substantial firepower against the enemy, facilitating the safe evacuation of all ground troops. Tragically, his tank was struck by an Rocket Propelled Gr***de, resulting in his death. Staff Sergeant Swiger's actions are a testament to his heroism. On this occasion, the Merchant National Bank building is now officially designated as the Staff Sergeant Richard J. Swiger Building, and we take pride in occupying it. Happy Memorial Day!

🍭While this might seem chaotic to outsiders, it represents a long-awaited milestone for us. The kitchen and candy production area is complete. With our own candy and chocolate making stage for all to see. The soda and ice cream station is almost finished. The Wonka Vault is completed. The $5 candy vault is nearly done. After 3 months of extensive renovation, our concept is starting to come to life.

A late night is underway at the candy shop, where M&N Pressure Washing are undertaking a soft wash of the building's exterior in preparation for sealing, and will then install exterior lighting to make the building shine day and night. Clarksburg is coming back to life with a lot of fun and smiles starting right here at Cornerstone Candy.

One sign is currently installed, with additional exterior work scheduled for next week. Progress is underway, albeit at a slightly slower pace than anticipated. We've quickly learned that 100 year old banks were build as fortresses and not meant to be modified easily. Hang in there with us. Its coming!

Cornerstone update:

Progress is slow as we continue to bring the building back to original and layout our floor plan. Waiting on a lot of our equipment to get delivered so we can start setting up. We are still on target for a May opening but may push back until the roads are completed in downtown.
