Community Ice Cream Sales
This has been an ongoing event in the community. Our Ice Cream trailer is a familiar site to everyone in our community at many of the Saline Area events. Our sales are planned by a small committee over several months prior to the events and requires many volunteers, as well as community business involvement. The Ice Cream is the finest and is served in extra large helpings. We even have developed our own flavor, Nutty Mocha which has become a favorite in the community. It is sold in Saline at Busch's Grocery and it produced locally by Stucchi's. Our Ice Cream sales have been very well received by the community,
