What’s a Waynedale Dog? The Waynedale Dog was created by a Waynedale News staff member in the spring of 2002 as a fun spin on the traditional coney/chili dog. It has been a local favorite appearing on The Stand’s, Dog-Out’s and other hotdog menus. The Waynedale Dog is prepared in a special way that includes mustard, chili or coney-sauce, diced onion, coleslaw and shredded cheese. If you’ve never had a Waynedale Dog, it is surely something that you just have to try and what better time to do so than at The Waynedale News Anniversary Party.
The Waynedale News building is also celebrating its recent façade facelift as well as the fifth year anniversary of its current owner, Alex Cornwell. Mr. Cornwell became an owner of the newspaper as a 22-year-old in 2009, now 27, he has made a significant investment in his building that contributes to the overall appearance of the business community. The improvements were assisted by the City of Fort Wayne’s Façade Grant program and local contractors.
