BARRIE FIREFIGHTERS & ICE CREAM HERE’S THE SCOOP

Baskin Robbins Canada Hosts 31 Cent Scoop Night To Help Firefighters Build Permanent Memorial

WHAT: Today is 31 Cent Scoop Night at all Baskin Robbins across Canada! Local firefighters are teaming up with Baskin Robbins stores across the country to raise money to build a national memorial.

Enjoy a Junior Scoop of ice cream or the new Soft Serve cone for only 31 cents. This is a great chance to get out with friends and family to enjoy spring in our community with firefighters taking part in the celebration. While enjoying your favourite ice cream explore a fire truck and chat with firefighters about the role they play in Canada and their hopes for an Ottawa monument.

WHY: The Canadian Fallen Firefighters Foundation is raising funds to build the only permanent, national memorial to firefighters who’ve died in the line of duty. Baskin Robbins is helping them make this happen. In addition to a $10,000 donation to CFFF, Baskin Robbins invites the public to make donations tonight in the stores. Even though provincial and municipal groups have paid homage to firefighters who have died in the line of duty, there has never been an organized national venue to honour Canadian fallen firefighters.

WHEN: Wednesday, April 29th, 2009
5:00pm to 10:00pm

WHERE: Baskin Robbins
331 Bayfield Street
Barrie, Ontario

COST: The cost of a 2.5 oz scoop of hard ice cream or the new 3oz soft serve will be 31 cents plus applicable taxes.
