Ice cream for a cause, times two

Cynthia sends a reminder that today’s the day Dairy Queen donates the proceeds from Blizzards to the Children’s Miracle Network. (Nearest Dairy Queen is in White Center, 10256 16th SW; here’s a map.) And that provides the segue to a note we received earlier this week: The West Seattle coordinators of the annual “Cones for Kids” fundraiser for the EJ Guild, which supports Children’s Hospital patients’ families, are dealing with a potential dilemma — months ago, they set their event for September 7th at the Alki Bathhouse; then the city chose that same day as Car-Free Day on Alki. So they want to start getting the word out that they’ll be offering cones and sundaes of Husky ice cream at the Bathhouse that day, in hopes the folks who come to the beach to play in the street (etc.) will be sure to walk over their way. 1-4 pm Sept. 7th; we’ll of course remind you again when it gets closer. Here’s the flyer for their event.

    We to the White Center DQ last night with the intent of buying a blizzard to support this cause, but after ten plus minutes (while being first at the register) with no acknowledgment from the staff, I left in frustration. What terrible customer service!! I’ll be going to Eastgate next time I want DQ.

Sorry, comment time is over.
