Eastern Iowa MINIs will be meeting for ice cream and other assorted goodies at the
Wilton Candy Kitchen in Wilton, IA on Saturday, June 6th at 1:00 pm.
After our ice cream we will take a leisurely motor together through the countryside into nearby Muscatine, where we will park at the Muscatine Riverside Park and check out the many adjacent antique stores as well as the
Muscatine History and Industry Center -- all within a couple of blocks of the Park.
The
Wilton Candy Kitchen is housed in an 1856-era building and is considered to be the oldest continuing ice cream parlor/soda fountain in the nation. George Nopoulos and his wife Thelma have doled out the treats and good cheer for decades. Check out this review from
American Profile.
****We need to give Thelma and George a good number, so please let us know if you're planning to join us by clicking on the RSVP link in the EIM NAM Calendar entry here:
