Submitted by St. Mary Roman Catholic Church

St. Mary’s Parish is pleased to announce the return of its annual Ice Cream Social on Thursday, July 27, from 4:30 to 7:30pm. This event will be held in front of the church on the north side of Wurster Park, 210 West Main St. We are celebrating the 131st year of our summer get-together of delicious food, ice cream and cake, and connecting again with friends and family.

We will have available seating on the lawn area and a great menu of meat, mac and cheese, German potato salad, and other tasty items to choose from, as well as drinks and free ice cream and cake! Visitors should enter the event from the Madison Street side of the church, where greeters will direct them through the purchase line. We will also have our popular Country Store, where fresh baked goods, jams and jellies, and other goodies will be available.

We look forward to seeing you once again. We ask that payment be made in cash or checks only, please. Come enjoy good food and an outdoor social gathering in a beautiful setting!
