My Mom and Dad (Joy Fain Ergle and Bill Ergle) grew up (HS classes of 1957 and 8) going to the Beacon and have taken all our generations every chance they got. So many great memories there of the founder checking us out, a great 12 scoop Ice Cream feast, the yelling guys and the great food! It's a family tradition to us -- God, great service and great food! We still go any chance we get!
