Walkerton, Ontario is about to get its first Dairy Queen®, and the Walkerton News recently spoke with Richard Turner, Greg Williams and Tracy David who are opening the new location.

According to the article, the restaurant is planned to open May 20th, and is currently hiring.

Said Turner, "I bought the building some three years ago, but didn't know what it should become. Then, we thought of Dairy Queen because Walkerton doesn't have one and we thought it was needed."

The story also mentions how for Tracy David, opening a Dairy Queen has always been a lifelong dream.

Said David, "It's hard to believe but I've always wanted to be involved in a Dairy Queen operation, so when I retired from policing after 32 years and Richard asked me to join the team, I jumped at the chance."
