There’s over one and a half miles of stores, restaurants & galleries to wander through. Going back as far as 1850’s this area has had a strong mercantile presence. Not long after a stagecoach stop was planned the area grew from a sleepy farm area to a busy community. Even though Dudgeon Monroe has change through the years it still retains that strong community bond. Jazz in the Park, 4th of July Children's Parade, Solstice Parties in the Glenwood Children's Park, and other Dudgeon Monroe annual events to bring neighbors together and keeps the bond growing.
