Tonight, in Harrod, community members gathered for an event called an “Ice Cream Social Distance”. The night was sponsored by the Auglaize Township Historical Society. There was an ice cream truck, balloon animals, and a 50/50 raffle fundraiser at the social. Since many of the Historical Society’s big events were canceled this summer, they hope to host separate, smaller ones to raise money for the Heritage and Veterans Memorial Parks.

The Hancock Historical Museum opened their doors and their porch to the community following the Fourth of July parade in Findlay for their annual Ice Cream Social. “We do that every year on the Fourth of July following the City of Findlay’s parade,” said Sarah Sisser, Exec. Director of the museum. “It’s just sort of our way of welcoming in the community on a special day for our community, for our country."
