Summers Trucking employees gathered for breakfast Saturday morning at the Ephrata American Legion. After ham and eggs and all the fixings, the 91 employees learned that the Summers family owners, Becky, John and Ken, had transferred their shares in the business to an employee stock ownership plan (ESOP). With that move, the Summers management triad made those 91 employees and their vacationing co-workers part owners of the business. Before she got around to the big announcement, Becky talked briefly about the company history, and how they got to where they are today.
