Bob Miller, communications coordinator for Hobby Lobby, said the company is looking forward to opening in Tilton. Store hours will be Monday through Saturday from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. Hobby Lobby stores are closed on Sunday. Hobby Lobby Stores, Inc., an Oklahoma City-based corporation, began in 1970 as Greco, a miniature picture frame company, in David Green's garage. For the ninth consecutive year, Hobby Lobby has raised the minimum wage for its employees, paying $15.70 per hour to full-time employees as of April 15. The case recognized closely held corporations as persons, which brought Hobby Lobby and similar operations protection under the free exercise clause of the First Amendment.
