I recently met with a nice lady named Jo who used to bartend at the Stockton Latitude 20 from 1976 to 1979. She wanted some bamboo and we did a swap for some rum. :)

She was hired by Tommy Lee and started out at $2.00 per hr. She loved her job and said she often would sell about $1000 in drinks in a night. The Latitude Manager was named Nehi.

She shared with me some personal photos and artifacts from her time at the Latitude.
Included will be the first ever interior 1970's photos of the Stockton Latitude 20. Also two of the Tikis now at Minnie's are seen in the photos.

If any one should have questions for her send me them via PM and I'll forward them on to her.

Big Mahalo to Jo for the sharing these personal photos and mementos.
I'll start out with these.

The Islander used to give out wooden nickles.

Tommy Lee's business card.

Nehi's card (Latitude Manager) Note: disco now used in advertising.

This was on back of both business cards. Any one know what it says?

This type of menu was posted at the beginning of the thread but there are differences such as the prices, special show prices and drink minimums and the surf rider drink in the surfer girl mug is no longer offered.

ahhh getting late, I'll post more tomorrow.

Happy Hunting! :)
