Richard Gokie , owner of the Seward Fast Mart at 215 N. 6th Street in Seward provided the program at Kiwanis today by bringing us up to date on the construction under way at the facility. They have acquired additional land and are moving the new convenience store back further from 6th street which will provide for additional gas pumps and customer parking in front of the building. Sixth street in downtown Seward is also Nebraska Highway # 15 going through the city. The highway carries a considerable amount of commercial truck traffic and the additional frontal space will be attractive to some of it. Richard and his brother have facilities in O'Neill, Columbus, Grand Island and Lincoln as I recall. It appears that the Convenience Store component is a very vital part of the business. We are pleased to have Richard and his family here in Seward and wish them well in the expanded business.
