Cold Cow Ice Cream of West Mifflin and Morella's Route 30 Shop-n-Save in Latrobe to host "Banana Split Bonanza" ice cream social to raise funds for cancer research
By Christine Emmick
With the weather warming, it's a great time to have fun with the family and enjoy a cold ice cream treat. This Saturday, May 2, at 10:30 a.m., Morella's Shop-n-Save and Cold Cow ice cream are doing just that. In keeping with Cold Cow's pledge to "bring the fun back to ice cream," they will turn a life-sized canoe into a banana split serving dish. Cold Cow and Morella's Shop-n-Save will provide three huge mounds of ice cream, bananas and other toppings, in an effort to benefit the American Cancer Society's Relay for Life.
For a donation of only $1.00 to the Morella's Route 30 Shop-n-Save's Relay for Life team, patrons will receive a Cold Cow Ice cream sundae with 100% of the proceeds going to the American Cancer Society. There will also be Pepsi and hot dogs at a bargain price of $1.00, as well as a pie throwing contest and huge outdoor produce sale.
Present for the festivities will be Tom Lazarchik, the owner of Strickler's Pharmacy of Latrobe, PA, which is the birthplace of the banana split. He will place a ceremonial scoop atop the creamy cold creation outside the Latrobe Shop-n-Save while attendees enjoy the celebration.
The fun will also be broadcast live on "What's cooking at Morella's Route 30 Shop-n-Save" at 10:30 a.m. on radio station WCNS 1480. Tune in with the "What's Cooking" crew to hear all the excitement, get some great recipes and find out more about the Morella Relay for Life team.
