Chris Cavender, a graduate of Howe High School, will once again host a Blue Bell Ice Cream Social through his Cavender Home Theater business. This year’s event will take place on August 5 at 6:30 pm at the Howe Area Chamber of Commerce/EDC Office at 101 E. Han-
ing Street. For the first time, the DISH provider will be serving up Root Beer Floats also. The free event began in 2015 and has taken place each year since with the exception of 2017. Lasty year’s event was a drive-thru due to COVID, but 2021 plans on being back to the traditional style. It’s a free event and all are welcome.
