A seasonal business on the Trans Canada Highway at Tompkins is opening early this year to do what it can for truck drivers during the COVID 19 pandemic.

Number  One Scoop, located just west of the Co Op Gas Station at Tompkins, usually opens the May long weekend selling ice cream, burgers, hotdogs and other fast food stuffs.

Janis Entem says she saw a way that she could help out during this crisis. "I have just a walk up window. I don't have a drive thru window. And when I had heard about how the truck drivers are having such a hard time getting food and not being allowed to walk up to drive thru windows, I thought that this is the perfect opportunity for me to do my part."

She will officially open on Monday March 30 and anyone who want to place an order can find a menu on her Facebook page. She will be open seven days a week from eleven a.m. until six p.m.

She says you can call when you're about half an hour away and she will have your food ready when you arrive. Phone 306-671-7467, or just come up to the walk up window.

All social distancing measures will be in effect when you come up to the walk up window.
