Friday Afternoon Ice Cream Social with an Optional B&B Stay Over
July 18 @ 4:00 PM - 8:00 PM
This is a step back in time experience, a real Old Fashioned movie set memory maker. Make this a day trip or an overnight journey. We have attended this event off and on since 1981 and it’s well worth the drive and a good carpool opportunity.
They use a tractor to churn the homemade ice cream and offer chicken and Ham dinners in the air-conditioned church hall. There is also a stand selling – hot dogs – hamburgers – fish sandwiches – and more.
Entertainment includes live music from the bandstand. A variety of handmade quilts, baked goods, produce and crafts are for sale.
Friday, July 18th. Hours: 4 – 8 PM
St. James Evangelical Church – about 65 miles / 1hr. 20min. from St.Louis
