We have beautiful summers here in Ventura County, from coastal fog to warm inland temps – all just a relatively short drive.

We also have some great ice cream shops! Let’s take advantage of the later sunsets and have some meet ups!

These are for all ages.

These are all Wednesday evenings, 7pm, so you have time for dinner and driving. Each night you attend, you will have a chance to have your family enter a drawing to take place after the last meeting for a chance to win a gift certificate to whichever of the four ice cream shops you choose. Each visit increases your odds. 🙂

August 7 – Coastal Cone in the Ventura Harbor: The harbor can be cool in the evenings, so please bring layers. We should try for a group photo at the big harbor sign overlooking the water.

August 14 – Little Calf Creamery in Thousand Oaks: This is a lovely cafe as well. You might even want to go early to have dinner there, too. There isn’t really any place to play, but there is a generous outside patio, so depending on the weather, let’s grab some outside seating. I expect it will be cool enough by that time of the evening.

August 21 – Tifa Gelato and Chocolate in Camarillo: Yes, this is a luxury ice cream, to be sure. If you have not yet tried it, let me assure you it is delicious! There is no place to play, but there is a nice breezeway alongside the shop the kids enjoyed last year.

August 28 – Ojai Ice Cream in Ojai: Libby Park is across the street. Last year we had a great time at the park after grabbing our cones.
