The 25th Anniversary Sale illustrates the success expe- rienced by owner, Peter Mar- tene, with his downtown business located at 51 Main St S. In the photo are he and his young family back in 1992 accompanied by a pre- sent photo that shows every- one grown up -what a change and what a ride it's been. The store was originally situated on Main Street where the local wine store is located; Martene said he saw a niche in the computer and office supplies market, so he quit his local arena job and started his own business. As well, through his own research, he found out that the Sears Agency was "booming" at the time. Mar- tene has recently decided to axe that initiative on June 1. Although the 55 -year-old has maintained a steady liv- ing wage, it was not always a successful endeavour; most businesses go through simi- lar struggles in the beginning stages. "When I look back now, I still have my books from 25 years ago and it was pretty dismal back then,' he said in a recent phone conversation. With no background in computers, Martene admit- ted to taking a chance, "I just jumped in cold feet." That brave leap has led him on an almost three dec- ade employment path and he said last Thursday that he's more than satisfied with, seeing as he's not once had to answer to a person in a higher command. Only time will tell where his shop will be in the next 25 years. At this present time, locals can still purchase their office and computer supplies at the back while as always, the front of the store has an assortment of women's clothing. Last Friday along with the limited time offer of a 25 per cent sale to mark the anni- versary celebration, Martene said he held a barbeque and donated roughly $500 to the local foodbank from the pro- ceeds collected at the feast. Seaforth Scouts receive $1,000 from Seaforth Lions First Seaforth Scouts and their leaders were at the Seaforth Lions Park on Monday night to receive a $1000 donation from Seaforth Lions Club president Bryan Vincent and vice- president Dave Harper.
