Ben and Jerry's Free Cone Day scoops up $7500 for Recovery Fund

Ben and Jerry's Free Cone Day at Greenlake, Gig Harbor and Southcenter yesterday was a huge success. With help from volunteers from United Way, KOMO News, Nordstrom's Southcenter and the Gig Harbor Chamber they collected $7,511.90* for our Disaster Recovery Fund - the largest amount they have raised in seven years.

The Gig Harbor Chamber in particular stepped up. Local Gig Harbor businesses donated over $1,600 dollars for the mudslide relief efforts.

*The final tally was $8,211.90
