This is not your ordinary Ice Cream Social! All ages will enjoy this free
community event which features ice cream, homemade lemonade, and musical
entertainment as one may have celebrated in Victorian Riverside during the
1890s. Guests will have the opportunity to play authentic Victorian games, learn
how old-fashioned hand cranked ice cream is made, operate a citrus sizer, and
watch a special patriotic program by the Sons of the American Revolution that
will include: musket firing, cotillion dance, and a parade through the grounds,
all in revolutionary-war era costumes. Musical entertainment will include
bagpipes, dulcimer, piano, vocal performances, and of course a barbershop
quartet!
Event Parking: Due to limited parking at the Heritage House, please plan to park
on the street or across the street at the YWCA. Please note that the YWCA's
parking gate will be locked after 4:30 pm. Please note: Heritage House
closes for July/August. This is the last day Heritage House will be open until
Friday, September 7, 2012.
