Kona Ice of York County is proud to sponsor a fundraiser for two tragic events that hit Maine last week. The fundraiser will be on Tuesday, May 19th from 3pm to 8pm at two Sanford locations.
The first location is in the area of 900 Main Street, by Partners Bank in downtown Sanford. The second location is in the parking lot of Lowes Home Improvement by Walmart, 1900 Main Street in Sanford.
We had 2 trucks free that evening, and with temperatures going into the 90’s on Tuesday in Maine, we decided instead of opening and selling, we would donate the trucks to help raise money for the families of Andrew Cross, the firefighter killed in the Searsmont fire and to the family of Maine Game Warden Joshua Tibbetts, who also died in the line of duty last week. Funds will also be sent to the Searsmont relief fund to help the many others badly burned and injured in the fire. They also lost 3 fire trucks in the fire, which these small communities rely on these firetrucks.
We will have a donation jar and 100% of all sales will go to these fundraisers. We take cash, credit card, e-pay or venmo The entire staff has volunteered their time at the event and it’s a small way for us to help during these tragedies.
So, please stop by, grab a delicious and refreshing Kona Ice on a very hot and humid day, and we will donate 100% of sales to help. Lets step up and help these communities as they deal with these tragedies.
