WHERE:      Ben & Jerry's - Bon Air Center, 290 Bon Air Center, Greenbrae

Phone 415-925-2522

WHO:         Everyone! 

WHY:  Free Cone Day was first celebrated back in 1979, in the original Ben & Jerry’s Scoop Shop - a dilapidated gas station in Burlington, Vermont. The day was created to thank loyal customers for their support during Ben & Jerry’s first year in business.

In keeping with one of Ben & Jerry’s original mottos - "Business has a responsibility to give back to the community" - each Ben & Jerry’s Scoop Shop selects a local nonprofit and collects donations on the day. 

Last year 4,000 cones were served in Marin.  Come by and try Ben & Jerry’s terrific new Greek Frozen Yogurts and support a local nonprofit.  Imagine the joy SingersMarin can continue to bring our community with a donation from each cone lover!   In 2011 SingersMarin provided joy and inspiration with over 40 free senior home performances, 15 concerts and performances at 16 events.  SingersMarin would like to teach Marin to sing in perfect harmony!
