This was the year,1975, we were paving Central Road. Getting our gravel from the pit on Strachan Road we would drive right by the Co-op corner. Ginger Slade decided to take advantage of the traffic and opened her ‘Takeout’. All the truck drivers and machine operators would stop for lunch. Her Hamburgers were a favourite. Of course she operated without a license or health inspection but she seemed to fly under the radar and managed to serve food all summer long.
