Receiving the COVID-19 vaccine is an exciting moment for many in the community. But what if getting the shot also means you could end the day with complementary ice cream?
That’s exactly what the Ice Box in St. Thomas is offering their customers as a way to say thank you for helping to keep our residents safe.
Ice Box owner Markus Hawco explains the premise behind the “Community Immunity” initiative.
Hawco says that as someone who has family working directly with COVID-19 patients, he’ll do whatever he can to help alleviate some pressure at local hospitals.
He adds that at the end of the day, it’s about protecting the community as a whole.
Those that drop into 125 Ross Street with their proof of vaccination card will receive a stamp on the back if it and their free scoop of ice cream.
