The Waspy’s Truck Stop in Templeton is in its final weeks of construction, and a date for a grand opening is expected to be scheduled soon. A groundbreaking ceremony for the site took place in June of 2016, and the owners, the Handlos family, are excited to get the first Waspy’s location up and running. Brian Handlos, a developer on the project, says they should have a date for the opening before long.

The approximately 10-acre plot at the intersection of Ivy Avenue and 305th Street will have a convenience store, grocery section, a 70-seat sit-down area, car wash and a large number of fuel pumps. There has been some talk the truck stop will feature a restaurant, but Handlos says that is not the case.
