The OK Economy Store was the first tenant at the south end of the new Ponoka plaza when it opened in the late 1960s at 5015-Railway Street. Shown in the photo is the first Ponoka store manager Terry Kucey and staff member Ruth Buchta, and over the years many local men and women would work in the popular store, which later moved to a new facility just west of the Ponoka Stampede campgrounds.
