remember when

By Floss Gargel

A Virtual Stroll Down Main Street EDITOR’S NOTE: September 26 was the gravesite of John F. Kennedy. I can still licenses; the police station and a couple 50th anniversary of Maple Shade’s tercentenary. see that “Shining Flame.� of fire engines were also there. This letter is a Remember When from Maple Back then, Main Street was very busy Over the years our Main Street slowed Shade resident Floss Gargel.

A celebration was held Saturday, Sept. 26, 1964. The highlight of the day was a baby parade down Main Street to the VFW at 900 E. Main St. The sidewalks were packed with onlookers on this bright and sunny day, and we watched as three of our children received beautiful trophies and showed off beautiful smiles and hand waves to all. First-place winner was Vicki Gargel; her theme was “9 shower of Roses for Maple Shade Tercentenary.� Secondplace winner was Patty McElliot, cute as could be in her sailor outfit, and her theme was “Anchors Away.� Third-place winner was Jackie Newell in a float representing the Eternal Flame at the

and a good moneymaking business district because almost all of us Shaders walked all over town and spent our money there. We had two 5-and-10 stores; about eight bars; five doctor’s offices; three gas stations; three drugstores; White’s Men’s and Women’s Apparel Fashion Store; two hardware stores; Radford Jewelers; Schucks Luncheonette, where our teenagers stopped to dance and socialize with their friends; two shoemakers; Garro Tailor; a post office at Margaret Avenue and Main Street, next door to Firestone’s where you could buy a good TV set; a Penn Jersey for tires or auto parts; Mimi’s Gift Shop; and our arts supply store, which is still there today. Main Street and Maple Avenue was where you paid your taxes and got your

down because of more cars, the malls, and everybody just seemed to like to hop into their cars and shop for bargains. Back in 1964 we did not even have our own high school. Boys and girls living west of Forklanding Road went to Merchantville High School, and the students east of Forklanding Road went to Moorestown High. I am sure there are a lot of newcomers to the Shade who don’t know about our history but are interested in knowing. Being a longtime member of the Historical Society of Maple Shade, up there in age, and not getting around as much anymore, I am pleading for new members to join us and keep the history alive and kicking. You only have to visit our Little Red

School House or train station to capture the joy of the treasures that our president, Betty Anne Procopio, has preserved over the many years. Trust me! You will be fascinated. There was also a silo on Collins Lane. The way that God’s sun has cast those tree branches upon it makes me feel good.
