The goal is to serve 10,000 scoops and raise $10,000 for The Salvation Army of Northeast Florida.
Each scoop served equals a $1 donation, thanks to a partnership with Moose Tracks and Denali Flavors, the ice cream’s parent company.
The Salvation Army will use the funds to support local programs, including food assistance, shelter, and emergency services for families in need.
No purchase is necessary, and there’s no limit to how many scoops you can enjoy. The event is family-friendly and open to the public.
Organizers recommend arriving early, as the event is expected to draw a large crowd. Click here to RSVP.
