SODDY-DAISY: National Ice Cream Day on Sunday

Celebrate those lazy, crazy days of summer with a big ice cream cone. President Ronald Reagan proclaimed the third Sunday in July as National Ice Cream Day. Rosie's Ice Cream shop will offer 25 handmade flavors along hot dogs, hamburgers, prizes and fun all day on July 18. They are located next to City Hall.

News from City Hall includes Janice Cagle's bid for a Hamilton County Commission seat in the November elections. Miss Tennessee 2009 Stefanie Wittler is planning a welcome home party for Lt. Kevin Beavers this Saturday when he arrives from Iraq. He has another year to serve, but will be home for a couple of weeks before returning.

The Soddy-Daisy Habitat for Humanity house is still in need of $45,000 before building can begin. Contact First Baptist Church at 332-2814 to offer ideas or money for this worthy project.
