How many of you are on FaceBook? Did you know there are several pages that have to do with Winlock? There is one called "You Know You Are from Winlock When" and it is a great trip down memory lane. There are a lot of former graduates on there who no longer live in the area. We talk about our old teachers, the old stores that used to be around when Winlock was bustling and photo's show up and you wonder who found them after all these years. Do you remember "Boys Ranch", where we all used to get our burgers? Or how about Prigmore's store or the Safeway that used to be downtown? It's fun reading about all the old stores that used to be here and the people who owned them. If you have a memory of Winlock, go on FaceBook and see how many remember it with you. I vividly remember the old Sarvela Store (aka Arth's Store) we would go over to Ferrier Road and get our ice cream or we would go to the Drug Store and sit at the Soda Fountain. Do you remember hanging out in these stores? I sure do.
