MINNESOTA: Slayton Pizza Ranch closes - (Marshall Independent)
February 19, 2008 – 6:17 pmLots of small-town residents try to support their local businesses. But in the case of the Pizza Ranch in Slayton and its owner, Dave Tiegs of Tracy, there was something more. Tiegs supported the Slayton community and the local schools, and when an outbreak of hepatitis A was reported at the restaurant last spring, community members rallied around him and his employees.
Thats what made the Pizza Ranchs closing on Friday a shock to many. Community members said Monday they didnt know why the business shut down.
Tiegs said Monday that he was unable to speak to an Independent reporter because of scheduling and time conflicts, but offered to speak at a later time.
