Van Orin man takes off with Wildman Hobbies
VAN ORIN — Tim Lehr of Van Orin makes his living with his hobby of rocketry.
Lehr’s business, called Wildman Hobbies, sold $500,000 to $750,000 in products last year, 80 percent of the business being mail order.
“I keep UPS and the Van Orin Post Office busy with shipping,” he added. “I have a six-car garage that will never see a car in it again.”
