After a lot of thought, we've made the difficult decision that The Creekside Scoop's final day will be Friday, August 21.
When we opened Creekside, we hoped it would become one of those little places people wove into their lives. A stop after baseball. A Friday night treat. A place grandparents could spoil their grandkids. A reason to sit on the patio just a little longer.
Because of you, it became all of those things.
This wasn't an easy decision, but it has been the right one.
The reality is that running a seasonal small business has become increasingly challenging. The costs of ingredients, labor, insurance, utilities and just about everything else continue to rise. While Creekside has been deeply loved by our community, we've reached a point where a seasonal business in this space is no longer financially sustainable.
This wonderful space also deserves its next chapter. Beginning today, we'll be looking for the next business to call it home. If you've ever dreamed of opening something in Cross Plains—or know someone who has—we'd love to connect. The space will be available beginning October 1.
Until then, we'd love your help giving Creekside the sendoff it deserves.
❤️ Come have one more cone.
❤️ Bring someone you love.
❤️ Order your favorite flavor.
❤️ Sit on the patio a little longer.
❤️ Make one more memory with us.
We'll also be offering deep discounts on all retail merchandise, candy and ice cream through our final day.
From the bottom of our hearts, thank you.
Thank you for every scoop, every birthday celebration, every after-game stop, every first job and every smiling kid with rainbow sprinkles all over their face.
You made Creekside what it was.
With gratitude,
Katy, Dale, Miles & Madeline Ripp
