PLYMOUTH â Clothing retailer Rue21 has announced a plan to open in the former Blockbuster store on Pilgrim Lane.
âPlymouth offers a great opportunity to further advance our brand in the Midwest region of the country,â said Rue21 senior real estate manager Brandon Clawson via email.
Clawson continued, âThe (Pilgrim Place) center is positioned strongly within the market and houses a number of retailers. This provides us with great exposure. Our position along the highway is great to gain the customers who are traveling in and out of the area.â

PLYMOUTH â One downtown shop owner is hoping to rise above a buildingâs bad reputation and bring a service to city residents.
Patrick Timm, owner of the recently opened All Good Things Tattoos in downtown Plymouth, said that he wants to offer âa safe place for people to get tattoos in Marshall County.â
All Good Things opened in September. Many citizens might remember another tattoo shop that operated at the same address several years ago, Madhouse Tattoos.
ARGOS â The Argos Lady Dragons suffered through a poor shooting night at Phil Weybright Gymnasium as the North Judson Lady Jays beat them 47-41 Thursday.Â
After playing and shooting so well on Tuesday against Culver Girls Academy, Argos didn't quite have the same intensity level against North Judson and Coach Gary Teel felt that was a contributing factor.Â
PLYMOUTH â It was a good night for Rockies wrestling â good turnout, good performances and a good result.
Plymouth grapplers got off to a fast start with four first-round pinfalls and a major decision to jump out to an early lead against visiting NorthWood, coasting to an eventual 61-9 Northern Lakes Conference victory in front of a lively home crowd on a special Alumni Night at The Rock.

PLYMOUTH â This Friday any Northern Indiana resident in need of food can get it at the National Guard Armory in Plymouth.
The Food Bank of Northern Indiana is holding their December mobile food pantry from 10 a.m. to noon at the Armory.
"We were looking for indoor locations (for the pantry) and that site is an awesome location for it," said Amanda Peterson of the Food Bank of Northern Indiana. "It's an open space, and it's warm in there. People won't have to wait outside in the cold or in their cars."
