Wawa kicks off a grand opening celebration in Middletown
Middletown’s new Wawa opens this Friday with free coffee, a hoagie-building contest between local first responders, and a visit from Wally Goose.
Middletown is getting a new spot for a morning brew and a quick bite. The new Wawa at 56 Reliance Road is officially opening its doors this Friday, Sept. 4, and the team is throwing a morning-long party to celebrate joining the neighborhood.
The fun starts early at 7:55 a.m. with a countdown led by the store's general manager, Tesia Huffman. If you are among the first 100 people through the doors when they open at 8 a.m., you will snag a limited-edition grand opening T-shirt. Even if you aren't an early bird, everyone can enjoy free hot coffee in any size through Sept. 6.
At 8:30 a.m., the focus shifts to a little friendly competition. The Hoagies for Heroes contest will pit local police and fire personnel against each other to see who can build the best sandwich. The morning wraps up with a ribbon-cutting ceremony featuring music, confetti, and an appearance by the company mascot, Wally Goose.
Beyond the snacks and festivities, the new location represents a significant local investment, bringing about 35 new jobs to the area. It is one of many new sites the company is opening this year as it expands across the Mid-Atlantic and Southeast.
Whether you are stopping by for the first responder competition or just looking for that free cup of coffee, the event is a great chance to meet the new crew and welcome a new business to the Middletown community.
