Ice Cream Sunday event to be held at Providence

Updated September 15, 2018 - 12:31 pm

Test your ice cream-eating skills during the annual Sunny 106.5 Ice Cream Sunday Sept. 16 at Huckleberry Park in Providence. Enjoy free frozen treats provided by Meadow Gold, family-friendly activities and ice cream-eating contests from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Children and adults will have the opportunity to show off their competitive spirit throughout the free event with separate contests for kids at 11:30 a.m. and 12:30 p.m. and adults at 11:45 a.m. and 12:45 p.m.

Winners will be determined by the person who eats six ice cream bars the quickest or who eats the most ice cream bars within a two-minute time limit.

A partners competition will be held at 1:30 p.m. During this contest, one person will be blindfolded while feeding his or her partner ice cream bars. The team with the most ice cream bars consumed within two minutes wins.

Those who prefer to enjoy their ice cream at a leisurely pace can do so while taking advantage of the other festivities and as a complement to the food trucks’ offerings.

Kids activities include a petting zoo, face-painting, inflatables, water balloons, piñatas and relay races.

The Sunny 106.5 team also will be on-site with great prizes, such as tickets to Legoland California, SeaWorld San Diego and the iHeartRadio Music Festival Daytime Stage.

In addition, there will be a variety of booths, which will include Air Pro Masters, America First Credit Union, Belvita Breakfast Biscuits, Blue Green Vacations, Clark County Family Services, Challenger Schools, Centennial Hills Hospital, Mountain View Hospital, Panda Law, Regional Transportation Commission of Southern Nevada, Renewal by Anderson, Sports Clips, T-Mobile, Tough Turtle Turf, Universal Solar and Wadbod.

Attendees also can enjoy Huckleberry Park’s multiuse events field, full-court basketball, swings, picnic area and shade ramada. Well-behaved, leashed pets are welcome, and they can play in the venue’s large and small dog parks.

The Sunny 106.5 Ice Cream Sunday is being presented by Sunny 106.5, Meadow Gold and Providence.
