A new retailer has opened in the former Gambit Games location at 815 N.W. Wall St. in downtown Bend. Cascade Cottons opened Sunday, selling Bend- and Central Oregon-themed resort apparel, said store owner Ted Howe. Howe moved to Bend 1 1/2 years ago from Nantucket, Mass., and has been working since to find a space to open his business. Howe is looking to hire one full-time employee and two or three part-time employees. Store hours are seven days a week, 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. and will extend to 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. in the summer.
