Make it a point to get out of the house this winter and bring<br />
the family to the newly remodeled Wells Visitors Center and<br />
Ice Cream Parlor. You can spend hours there enjoying ice<br />
cream, but also watching a movie about the Wells family<br />
and business, experiencing interactive displays and even<br />
finding out, by taking a computer quiz, what ice cream<br />
novelty your personality is most like.<br />
Mark your calendars for the 2020 Ice Cream Days Festival<br />

flavor contest, ice cream eating contest, a cricket tournament<br />
and the BIG BASH (a Saturday evening concert). Watch for<br />
upcoming announcements.<br />
While you’re in town head to the Le Mars Arts Center to do a<br />
hands-on project like painting, ceramics, alcohol ink, clay or<br />

Just call 712-546-7476 and the staff will have everything<br />

be displaying the very prestigious American Watercolor<br />
Society 153rd Annual Traveling Exhibition. Forty selected<br />
