When we all scream for ice cream
"I'll take a large vanilla cone, please."
Members the Bluffton fire department answered the call to that request all afternoon on Sunday at the Bluffton Dairy Freeze. Jon Kinn, fire chief, said that the department raised over $350 taking orders and making cones for Bill and Phyllis Marschal's customers.
"It's not our calling, but we did have fun," Kinn admits about the fundraiser. He said that only one cone was dropped during the afternoon.
Wonder what would happen if they made pizzas? Especially if they delivered it in a large red vehicle with a ladder on the back.
