Bathurst store uncertainty

The future of the Spinning Wheel Yarn Shop in Bathurst is in doubt.

66 year old owner Beth Sullivan says she and her husband plan on retiring, and the shop could close on June 1st; if a buyer can’t be found.

Sullivan added that if a buyer does step forth, she’ll think about keeping the shop open until September, the busy season.
