Anne Marie's Country Deli : About
Sugar Loaf : better than you remember
Vintage Sugar Loaf boasted two culturally significant gathering spots
that were universally used every day.
One was the post office on the edge of town and the other was the deli in the center of
town.
A standard day for Sugar Loaf artisans always included a trip to
both the deli and the post office.
First a walk to the post office encountering one community member
after another with smiles, handshakes, and conversation.
Then a quick stop at the deli for more of the same before beginning the day's work.
Probably more decisions and plans of importance were made in and
around these two gathering spots than in all the other local meeting
halls combined.
Modern Sugar Loaf is no different and is held together by the same
cultural glue, but today is even better.
The two meeting places have been moved closer together thus more
convenient for today's busy country lifestyle.
Take part in an age old tradition by participating in Anne Marie's
quick start exercise program.
Park in the Ann Marie's parking lot, walk over for your mail, then return to
pick up your morning starter.
You might even enjoy a walk around the bypass with other locals who
know that nothing is better than a healthful brisk morning walk. And, hey, you gotta eat!
