Wigley family sells Shafter Fastrip amid change
After 12 years at the Shafter Fastrip, Wigley faces a major shift as they exit. The family earned about $20,000 from the State Lottery royalty on a $3.8 million ticket. They previously ran a Bakersfield Fastrip and plan to focus on the Shafter store, hoping the new venture reduces 24 hour on call duties.
