Visit Main Street Waitsburg and stop to play a game or snap a picture with our beautiful bronze sculptures. Get game pieces at Weller Public Library to play "The Waitsburg Story" (artist Wayne Chabre) with Fannie Weller. Then cross the street to pose with the City's founding fathers in "The Waitsburg Trilogy" (artist Jeffrey Hill) located in front of City Hall, and meander down further to see "The Waitsburg Monument" (artist Squire Broel) that features markings made by our Waitsburg kids and community members!
