PRESIDENTIAL PROCLAMATION 5219


NATIONAL ICE CREAM MONTH
Lap this one up folks, since 1984 a Presidential Proclamation has deemed July as National Ice Cream month and the third Sunday in July as National Ice Cream day. Signed by President Ronald Reagan the proclamation urges the good citizens of these United States to observe these events with “appropriate ceremonies and activities.”

Oh Yeah.
Although the proclamation only mentioned specific dates in 1984, the celebrations have continued ever since, mostly by the ice cream manufacturers.

This year National Ice Cream day is July 15 and there are a lot of sweet deals out there. (pun intended).

Here’s a few:

CARVEL: Buy one get one free cone or cup soft serve ice cream on Sunday, July 15.

BRUSTERS: They constantly offer promotions like free kid cones for those vertically challenged and doggie sundaes. Their Sweet Rewards program is a great cost savings and for National Ice Cream month they are even offering more giveaways to the loyalty club members as well as rolling out several new flavors like: “Espresso Yourself”

PLEASE TOUCH MUSEUM: This delightful Philadelphia museum is offering free ice cream all day on July 15 to everyone… not just the kiddies.

BASKIN-ROBBINS: Download their loyalty app for savings on cones. Help BR in celebrating their 31 original flavors on July 31st by getting $1.50 scoops all day!

DIPPIN’ DOTS:  They are celebrating their 30th Anniversary by offering free Dippin’ Dots and prizes at participating locations on July 15.

Despite this quick list there are many more I’m sure. Shops across the country will probably offer some sort of freebee. Show up July 15 and ask what they are offering.
It's your civic duty to eat ice cream
or... DON'T say "no" to ice cream


God Bless America…and Ice Cream.
