There are few things better than an ice cream cone on a hot summer day.

Now Cleveland residents can share the sweet treat with their local first responders at an ice cream social.  

It's part of Mayor Frank Jackson's 'Healthy Neighborhoods Initiative' running throughout the summer.

During the socials, residents have the opportunity to tour the firehouse, receive summer safety tips and get a wellness check by local EMS.

In addition to Cleveland Fire, Emergency Medical Service (EMS), the City Kennel and the Cleveland Division of Water will also be on hand to interact with local residents. 

The ice cream socials run from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. on the following days:

·               July 1: Fire Station #4 at 3136 Lorain Avenue
·               July 15: Fire Station #41 at 3090 E. 116th Street
·               July 22: Fire Station #13 at 6835 Broadway Avenue
·               August 5: Fire Station #39 at 15637 Lorain Avenue
