\nJane Haven is the manager of Calamity Jane’s Firearms and Fine Shoes.\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\nBy Jennifer Farnsworth\n<\/div>\n

Jane Havens is the woman behind the whimsical name of a unique store that opened last month in Hudson Falls.<\/p>\n

Calamity Jane’s Firearms and Fine Shoes at 1120 Dix Ave. is the creation of the Havens Family, Jane, husband Tim, and sons Tim Jr. and David.<\/p>\n

The Havens are already well known business owners in town. For the past three and a half years they have operated Falls Farm and Garden on Dix Avenue in Hudson Falls, a tractor and farm equipment store.<\/p>\n

Now in addition to operating a farm service company, the family is venturing in the sport guns business, but with a twist. Jane said many people are doing a double-take when they read the name of the new business.<\/p>\n

“We have had many, many people say fine shoes–and firearms? How can the two possibly go together,” said Havens.
\nHavens said they go together because it’s a family affair.<\/p>\n

Tim Jr. is an engineering student at Clarkson University in Canton and David is a junior at Hudson Falls High School. They are both heavily involved with the store. The family took their love and respect for shooting sports and mixed in Jane’s passion, which is shoes.<\/p>\n

“I have over 150 pairs of shoes, many of them are fun styles. The store reflects that, in particular the shoe section,” said Havens.<\/p>\n

Havens said the new store has a mercantile feel to it, based on the family’s dedication to small towns and small business. She said her husband, a supporter of Second Amendment rights, took the opportunity to get into the firearms business after the former owner of the business that was in the building, John’s Outdoor Sports, decided to retire.<\/p>\n

Since opening last month, the shop has stocked up on its inventory of handguns and long guns.<\/p>\n

“With hunting season approaching, we plan to be busy,” said Havens.<\/p>\n

She said while fathers and sons stop, and feel happy in the firearms element, moms and daughters check out her collection of footwear available.<\/p>\n

“We know our name gets attention and we know that we have what the sports enthusiast is looking for, but we also have professionals stopping in for shoes. It’s really been something,” said Havens.<\/p>\n

Havens said they are working on ensuring a strong start and have not yet developed a website. Calamity Jane’s Firearms and Fine Footwear has weekday and Saturday hours but are closed on Sunday and Monday.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
