Hi Everyone!

It’s our sweetest route of the season – the ICE CREAM RIDE! We’ll ride to the Village Mercantile in Aaronsburg for an ICE CREAM stop! 🍦 Head inside to order cones, cups and shakes made with Meyer’s Ice Cream. Yum!! While there, take a moment to walk around the shop and see what Beth has added since last year…candy, gourmet goods, home goods, gifts and more.

Papa’s Grill will be back on the menu this Thursday! Their speciality hot dogs and burgers hit the spot last week. Get your favorite again or try one of their other delicious flavor combos!
