SUMMER OF ICE CREAM: GRAETERâS! Established way back in 1870 in Cincinnati, this historic, family-owned brand is famous for their delicious small batch ice cream and any chocolate chunk flavors! They are currently the only commercial ice cream maker using the French Pot method that theyâve been using since they first opened! Plus, those chocolate chunks, oh my goodness! Vegan options are available.
PLAN: Details for this event have just been confirmed! We got a later than usual showtime, so weâll go with ice cream BEFORE the show! Hereâs the plan: Meet at Graeterâs at 6:30pm for a pre-show sweet treat! Then, get ready for a fun and wild one! Purchase your ticket for the 7:30pm showing and meet in the lobby area between 7:10 and 7:20pm. Advance ticket purchase not required but be sure to mention youâre with the Movie Group for admission and concession discounts!
Look forward to seeing you there, Dan
