Heat wave is coming, and so is the ice cream

With forecast highs in the 30s the next few days, it just makes sense that the University Union is repeating its popular Get the Scoop promotion on Wednesday (Feb. 19). Starting at noon in Leona Clouds Commons, $1 will buy you a double-scoop cone of Zanzibar Chocolate, Vanilla, Cookie Dough, Cotton Candy or the intriguingly named Kitty Kitty Bang Bang.

Mix your ice cream with… a blood donation

Wait.  That didn’t sound right. What we meant to say was that, along with Wednesday’s ice cream sale, also going on in that area is a Red Cross blood drive. The UW-Green Bay student athlete committee is hosting the drive just across the way from the ice cream stand, in the Phoenix Rooms. The hours are 9 a.m. until 2 p.m., so depending on when you donate, you can avail yourself of some $1 ice cream while you’re in the neighborhood. Walk-ups are welcome for the blood drive.
