  photograph of Aaron's Place in the Ararat Community. After Willie Bowman retired; his son Aaron operated a place where young people could hang out. It was open on Saturdays until midnight and on Sundays until 11pm. On school nights; it was off-limits. The strongest drink was "Double Cola," and no foul language was accepted. The business remained in the family until 1953. Other entrepreneurs later operated businesses from the building.
