Even the best cauldrons need a quick tune-up! 🪄✨

​Looks like CALYPSO'S will be undergoing a little pick-me-up today, August 26th, so the window will be closed for some quick maintenance.

​"Flip the switch and let the cauldron bubble!" We are just doing a little behind-the-scenes work on the machines to make sure everything is swirling perfectly for the weekend.

​Thank you all so much for understanding. CALYPSO'S will be back up and running before you know it! 🍦🌿

Pure nostalgia in a cup. 🍦✨

​Nothing hits the spot quite like a classic A&W Root B**r Float at Calypso's!

​Look at those ribbons! We layer rich, creamy vanilla soft serve with ice-cold, bubbly A&W root b**r, then top it off with a mountain of whipped cream and a cherry. It’s sweet, fizzy perfection made fresh to order.

✨️​Layered with rich, velvety soft serve
​Made with classic A&W Root B**r

​Grab yours at the window, take a seat by the water, and treat yourself to the ultimate summer classic! 🌊

Public Business Update: Columbia County Inspection & Jamboree Weekend

​We would like to extend our sincere appreciation to the Columbia County Environmental Health Department for their visit to Calypso's this afternoon.

​The county was dispatched to our property today in response to what was described as an urgent, targeted complaint regarding our exterior operations.

We are pleased to report that after a thorough review, the county officials confirmed our operations are completely sound, the exterior complaint was entirely outside their jurisdiction, and our interior health and safety record remains a flawless 100%.

​As an independent, self-funded small business, we take our operational integrity very seriously.

We are always happy to cooperate with county officials, though it is unfortunate when taxpayer resources and county department hours are weaponized for baseless, retaliatory complaints. We appreciate the inspector’s complete transparency with us regarding the nature of the call.

​Calypso's is proud to be actively open, fully operational, and serving the Vernonia community during our busiest weekend of the year. We believe that keeping doors open and actually serving the public is the best possible use of local commercial space.

We will leave the locked doors, empty real estate, and grant compliance issues to the parties currently managing them.

​Thank you to everyone who has already made today one of our highest-grossing days of the season. The window is open, the milkshake mixers are running, and we will be here serving until 8:00 PM tonight. Happy Jamboree!

Calypso's is open 12 till 8pm! Happy Vernonia Friendship Jamboree everyone!

The air quality is pretty rough out there today, so we’ve made the decision to keep Calypso's closed. It’s not a great day to be out grabbing a burger or soft serve, so please stay safe and stay indoors until the skies clear up. We'll be back to mixing your favorite shakes soon!

Hey Vernonia! 🎣

​Did you know it’s Free Fishing Weekend across the entire state of Oregon today and tomorrow (June 6th & 7th)?

​If you’ve been looking for an excuse to get outside, this is it! You don't need a license, tag, or endorsement to fish, crab, or clam anywhere in the state this weekend.
​Here’s the rundown:

​🐟 Keep it local: Grab your poles and head right down to Vernonia Lake! It’s a perfect weekend to get everyone out on the water.

​🦀 Hit the coast: If you’re up for a drive, crabbing and clamming are also completely free statewide right now! (Just remember to check the ODA hotline for any beach closures before digging).

​🌲 Bonus: Today (Saturday) is also State Parks Day, so day-use parking is totally free at all Oregon State Parks!

​(Note: All standard catch limits, size restrictions, and gear rules still apply!)

​Let’s see those catches! Feel free to drop your Vernonia Lake fish pics in the comments below. And if you need to fuel up before or after hitting the water, swing by Calypso's over on the bank for a burger and some soft serve! 🍔🍦

The polls are officially CLOSED, Vernonia!

🍦 We had an incredible 179 votes, and the race was so tight that we just couldn't pick only one winner.

​So, we are bringing FOUR of these ultimate milkshakes to the Calypso's menu to see how they preform! 🎉 While supplies last.

​Come down to the park and let us mix up one of these new favorites for you:
Calypso's Soft Serve Ice Cream

​🪵 The Logger's Delight: A rugged, robust blend packed with rich chocolate fudge, caramel, and crushed Butterfinger.

⛰️ The Minty Mountains: A cool, refreshing peak of flavor featuring rich fudge and crushed Andes Mints.

🍌 Banana Split: The classic parlor favorite! Fresh banana, chocolate syrup, and sweet strawberry topping, all perfectly mixed into one delicious shake.

​🍓 The Berry Patch: A sweet, refreshing blend of mixed summer berries (strawberries, raspberries, and blackberries) mixed perfectly into our vanilla soft serve.

​Thank you so much to everyone who voted and helped us brainstorm! Which one of these three are you coming to try first? 👇
