of chain operation ...Other than
numerous self innovations, there
is always someone from the clan

WHEN GAIL Shapiro began
her Summit Travel seven years
ago, she made a silent vow ... to
add an employee per year.
Summit Travel's recent move
'back home" across from her orig-
inal location on Orchard Lake
Road, south of 13 Mile, was with
seven employees in 1,500 square
feet of busy computers ... There
were only a couple of them
worked by two people when she
started out ... Inbetween the
moves was a short stay with no
outside signage in the Arboretum
Building on 12 Mile.
Gail has come a long way ...
Her knowledge of customer
wants and their satisfaction has
given them what every traveler
desires in a travel agency ... con-
fidence.

ton's in Southfield is former day

continually be a wonderful mem-
ory for many who worked with
