Taking a break now from the fries and ice cream of our summer work, we started making soap!

We sold a couple of bars from the lemonade shop in the summer and decided to pursue it more. If you want high quality artisan bar soap, check us out!!

The park just informed us right now that they are turning off our water!
Obviously a restaurant can't operate without water, so we have to close.

The park is not telling us when they will turn the water back on, so we will be closed for today and we plan to reopen tomorrow.

We are so sorry to be missing any of you who were planning to come out on this rainy day!

Here is our new schedule for 2024....
I know! This is complicated! 😆 But I hope this schedule puts more staff in the right place at the right time, increasing our hours but also not killing efficiency.

If you’re familiar with our previous years’ hours, think of it as, on the weekends:
- Close ice cream later
- Open golf earlier
- Cut out Friday’s kitchen in May & June.

To participate in the late night fun of the Pontoon Parade, we're keeping the ice cream bus open late on Saturday night, the 19th!

OPENING EARLY!
On Wed & Thur (Aug 2 & 3) the golf shop will be open at 8:30.

ICE CREAM BUS and LEMONADE/GOLF are OPEN AS USUAL.

Unfortunately the kitchen is closed again today as we don't have staff to work.

WE ARE VERY, EXTREMELY SORRY!

This is our business and we want to have it running.
I have to choose between 2 bad options: very low quality service at all sections (bus, golf & kitchen) or proper service in the bus and no service in the kitchen.

ANYONE WANTING TO WORK? WE WANT TO MEET YOU!
