Park amenities also are available to enjoy. Huckleberry Park, named after the classic Mark Twain character Huckleberry Finn, has large and small dog parks, a multiuse events field, full-court basketball, an outdoor stage area, swings, a picnic area and shade ramada and other spaces designated for future amenities.

Well-behaved leashed pets are welcome at the event.

Before and after Ice Cream Sunday, attendees are invited to tour the community developed by Focus Property Group.

Providence has been among the country’s fastest-selling master-planned communities. Its spirit is rooted in the traditions of small-town America with neighborhoods bringing people together.

Wide, tree-lined boulevards frame the 1,200-acre community, which features top builders including KB Homes, Richmond American Homes and Summit Homes and offers a variety of floor plans and amenity options. The master plan features the Promenade Park, Huckleberry Park and Knickerbocker Park, the latter with views of the entire Las Vegas Valley and miles of trail systems.

Providence’s Master Homeowners Association hosts a variety of cultural, social and educational events for residents.

The community also partners with several great nonprofit organizations and other groups to host free family-friendly community events, including an Earth Day event in April and Ice Cream Sunday.

The Sunny 106.5 Ice Cream Sunday is being presented by Sunny 106.5, Meadow Gold, Providence Master Planned Community and Providence Master Homeowners Association.

Huckleberry Park is at 10325 Farm Road, just off the I-215 North Beltway and Hualapai Way in northwest Las Vegas.

Providence is minutes from shopping, dining, schools, recreational areas and I-215 and U.S. Highway 95 access, and it is close to Nellis and Creech Air Force bases.
