Break out the celebratory Glazers, Suamico.
The village northwest of Green Bay should see its second Kwik Trip convenience store open in early August.
The La Crosse-based convenience store chain in January purchased the property at 1535 Sunset Beach Road, formerly home to the Suamico Citgo and Burger King. The site is part of a 26-acre parcel, the bulk of which a local farm has used in recent years as a strawberry patch and sunflower maze.
The Burger King closed in late January and the Suamico Citgo closed by Feb. 19. Both businesses opened on Sunset Beach Road in 1996.
Kwik Trip began remodeling the existing building after the two businesses closed.
A Kwik Trip spokesperson in early June said renovations for the new Suamico location are scheduled to be done by late July and the company currently plans to hold a grand opening event at 1 p.m. Aug. 6 at the Sunset Beach Road store.
When it opens, the Sunset Beach Road store will be the 23rd Kwik Trip in Brown County.
