When Star Wars debuted on the silver screen in May 1977, Leo Williamson was just a child. As the owner of Cosmic Games & Toys, his love of science fiction never waned. With an impulse to share his love, he created the store where open play, community and gaming could co-exist. Located at 234 W. Main St. right in the heart of downtown, Cosmic Games & Toys boasts a wide array of toys from various sci-fi franchises, with most of the priced selection collected by Williamson. The location additionally serves as a place for the community to enjoy fellowship together through games. Within the store, tables are provided for card and board games, with Magic: The Gathering and Pokémon trading cards additionally sold. Described as a family venture, Williamson wants to use the store as an opportunity for his children to gain management experience.
