This annual event, where each customer receives one junior-sized scoop of free or cheap ice cream at each Baskin-Robbins location visited during five hours in the evening, always draws big crowds. At one location the local rescue squad was in line directly in front of us. As tonight was dedicated to their fallen fellows, several people encouraged them to jump the line, and besides a call could arrive any moment and the team would have to depart without their dessert. But they refused all special favors and remained in line to the door. You can be sure I'll send them an extra donation this year!
