Since 2015, Cavender Home Theater and the Howe Area Chamber of Commerce have treated Howe to an ice cream social in the downtown area. Due to COVID-19, some changes will be made for tonight’s event which will take place on O’Connell Street, a street over to the north from downtown. It will begin at 6:30 pm next to Summit Gardens.
This year’s ice cream will be served not in a bowl, but in a wrapper. Chris Cavender, owner of Cavender Home Theater usually serves ice cream from containers of Blue Bell, however, tonight he and his staff will be handing the tasty treats through the car window as it is a “drive-thru” ice cream social “distancing.”
There will be many options for those who want to drive through O’Connell Street such as Snickers, Klondike bars, Blue Bell cups, Drumsticks, and much more.
The Howe Area Chamber of Commerce welcomes everyone and invites individuals to join the chamber for $25 annually and businesses to join $75 annually. The chamber supports their members and Cavender Home Theater was a charter member in the reformation of the chamber in 2015.
