Please accept my apology for the lack of communication this year. A crazy year to say the least. Also little if any special attractions. Crazy yes, but also challenging on several levels. Trying to finally get over & recover from all the ramifications of Covid. (sadly many did not recover).<br /><br />Let's throw in some health issues along with weather that can only be called abnormal, unusual, etc. But THANKS to YOU loyal friends & customers we are still here. <br /><br />However there are some important changes on the way for several reasons. Big number one is that this year, around October 1, we will enter our winter schedule earlier than in the past..<br /><br />Starting October 1, we will be open on Thursday, Friday, Saturday & Sunday. Cosed on Monday, Tuesday & Wednesday. Hours: Open at 2:00 & close at 8:00. (when Daylight Savings Time ends in Nov. we will close at 7:00)<br /><br />As in the past we expect to close for the year the end of November & reopen next year around the end of March. <br /><br />NOTE: All of this is open for adjustments depending on circumstances.<br /><br />Why & What's Up? you may ask. Age & health & family responsibilities. Papa will be 75 years old the end of December. I do not plan to hang up my helmet entirely, but I will not be on the field as much as in the past. I have a few health issues & they need to be looked into with more detail. Some of these go way back & a couple since late last year. <br /><br />So I will spend some time during the last quarter of this year with some super doctors. Probing & poking; tests, procedures & discussions I feel sure.<br /><br />So that's it. I am looking forward to my nineties when my youngest grand child steps out on her own. Papa Robb's Paradise Ice is not going away. Just slowing down a little earlier this year, plus our catering & mobile sales continue. A plug here: remember to visit us at the Wonderland event with the Multiply Church in December. Always a great time.<br /><br /><br /><br /></p>Paparobbs Paradise Icehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00930434764879252810noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2526487541694619912.post-38871028798913654892021-12-02T15:54:00.003-05:002021-12-02T15:54:39.239-05:00<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcl-GEs0gT75Pdi3EbqWdCb9wTyAA6mjjGXtuAp3erXVT6QLrdSRWvNUdUgp28dnoVb8pJ2rQKcwXUNQogqtoEN9w3pY5vGOvduktbZX_KyQ33qlYx8tOO_ZBo3ufLU2LmmXCcWkTxOrhG/s454/Clip3.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="331" data-original-width="454" height="233" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcl-GEs0gT75Pdi3EbqWdCb9wTyAA6mjjGXtuAp3erXVT6QLrdSRWvNUdUgp28dnoVb8pJ2rQKcwXUNQogqtoEN9w3pY5vGOvduktbZX_KyQ33qlYx8tOO_ZBo3ufLU2LmmXCcWkTxOrhG/s320/Clip3.png" width="320" /></a></div><br /> BLOG - END OF YEAR PART 2 -- 2021<br /><br /><br />Let's begin Part 2 by reminding you to please read Part 1 of this blog & also to keep checking all our <br /><br />social media posts & blogs through out the off season at Papa Robbs. Not only will we be keeping <br /><br />you up to date on our plans for next year, but also on our winter mobile sales operations.<br /><br />That all said , another big Thank You for your help, ideas & support for this year. We continue - like <br /><br />most small businesses - to dig our way out of this ongoing Covid situation & we appreciate your <br /><br />help more than ever.<br /><br />This seems to be the perfect time to explain exactly what Papa Robb's Paradise Ice is all about: our <br /><br />business philosophy so to speak. Our MISSION STATEMENT is: To serve quality products in a <br /><br />safe, all inclusive, family-friendly atmosphere. The key words here are: Safe, Inclusive, Family.<br /><br />We are much more than just an ice cream, frozen treat store. We believe in being a part of our <br /><br />community; Cabarrus & surrounding counties. children & families are the basis of our business. <br /><br />Their - your - safety is our priority. Inclusive is really very simple also. All are welcome here as long <br /><br />as you are polite, obey our rules & respect each other.<br /><br />It has been a real deep pleasure to watch all of you come together at Papa Robbs. We are all very <br /><br />proud of that family feeling. We have a rather sizable involvement with schools, churches, pre-<br /><br />schools, daycares, etc. We are very proud of that, not because of what we do, but because of what <br /><br />we have learned.<br /><br />So thank you once again. We have some changes coming next year - hopefully a couple of big <br /><br />changes - some new events, products & a return of some things from our history. Stay tuned this <br /><br />winter for all the news.<br /><br />Please be safe & enjoy the coming Holiday Season.<br /><a href="http://www.paparobbs.com">www.paparobbs.com</a><br /><p></p>Paparobbs Paradise Icehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00930434764879252810noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2526487541694619912.post-5991383660757190302021-11-21T20:26:00.002-05:002021-11-21T20:26:54.375-05:00<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgLa9Z-J89lYLbTKpej8VtN65WKbTsJJf665C5DGsVjpdxCPBBe2KEhxIO5WyjbnVhHwmNI2gwpwexWk9a58cJ7EuYOHdFAkOYW8jOR3JQSKdwzuhAzUagFCnTOcTbGhKbkfQCF23hnZCyF/s247/blog+picture.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="184" data-original-width="247" height="184" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgLa9Z-J89lYLbTKpej8VtN65WKbTsJJf665C5DGsVjpdxCPBBe2KEhxIO5WyjbnVhHwmNI2gwpwexWk9a58cJ7EuYOHdFAkOYW8jOR3JQSKdwzuhAzUagFCnTOcTbGhKbkfQCF23hnZCyF/s0/blog+picture.jpg" width="247" /></a></div><br /> BLOG END OF YEAR 2021<p></p><p>Hello again. This message will actually be a two-parter so let's get to part one. Our year is in its final days. While we will close for Thanksgiving we will be open Friday, Saturday & Sunday after -- our final day will be November 28.</p><p>This year has been much better than last year and better than we expected. We owe it all to you our loyal customers & friends. You simply kept coming in spite of the fact that part of our facility did not reopen due to a couple of "Covid Surges". So thank you again.</p><p>IMPORTANT NEWS ABOUT OUR MOBILE SALES: While our store will close for the winter our mobile carts & trucks will remain open all winter long. Mobile sales & catering will still roll up & down our county & neighboring ones also.</p><p>We have a full slate of high school basketball games on our plate as well as some church events. These will be posted on a weekly schedule so please stay on top of all our social media platforms.</p><p>We have both trucks & mobile carts to handle most events so if you have a birthday party or customer or employee appreciation event - please keep us in mind. Any event we can handle.</p><p>In closing thanks again for a successful season & we look forward to next year. With next year in mind note that we will have blog part 2 in about two weeks & it will concern next year with hopefully some big news. </p><p>Happy Thanksgiving.</p><p><a href="http://www.paparobbs.com">www.paparobbs.com</a></p><div><br /></div>Paparobbs Paradise Icehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00930434764879252810noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2526487541694619912.post-30461837132163508692021-08-23T05:36:00.001-04:002021-08-23T05:36:26.042-04:00<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhWALlAMekcyYs4CwbTSUPhtxlTsL0F19GQuJ7NLZr38ied7-FxIvo8F4FS8aGPtdzLlyVNyx4FOEhLBhNH7e__EIHEpkKt9b-YP9BnwF6iH_UYNL2pd0bMyU6jQ9WewtgyJD-ZF-eAAEVl/s634/ScreenHunter_1661.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="634" data-original-width="611" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhWALlAMekcyYs4CwbTSUPhtxlTsL0F19GQuJ7NLZr38ied7-FxIvo8F4FS8aGPtdzLlyVNyx4FOEhLBhNH7e__EIHEpkKt9b-YP9BnwF6iH_UYNL2pd0bMyU6jQ9WewtgyJD-ZF-eAAEVl/s320/ScreenHunter_1661.jpg" width="308" /></a></div><br /> BLOG -- Aug. 22, 2021: SOME CHANGES ARE COMING<br />Hello again & I am sorry it has been so long , but we have been very busy this year & have faced some challenges -- some good & some not so good. Now some changes have arrived & there are more to come. So please pay attention & also be sure to keep checking our social media posts every day; sometimes more than once a day.<br /><br />Let's start with some good news. This year has been much better than last year. Thanks to all of you for helping us survive last year as well as for your super support this year - both at our store & with our Mobile events.<br /><br />But now we face a new Covid Surge -- and it is for real & serious. Viruses are living things & they too will fight to survive. They change & mutate into different forms. So we MUST fight back (more on this is a moment). We have already cancelled our extracurricular activities such as food & entertainment & reduced our weekend hours by one hour.<br /><br />But we too have a shortage of help - especially since school begins. Three of our key people are in the education system. The result is that must reduce their hours at Papa Robb’s.<br /><br />Therefore we have decided to implement our Fall hours of operation early. From mid-October to early September. Labor Day will be our final Monday for the year. Starting Tuesday, September 7 our new hours will be from 1:00 pm to 8:00 pm - six days a week, closed on Mondays.<br /><br />Allow me please to close on a more serious note. Once upon a time I lived a dream life. Not only did I work in the motorsports world, my company & its products were very successful. I was a happy man. Many of my heroes became my friends - some of the finest folks I have ever known. Sadly it was a dangerous time & we lost many good close friends. I miss them all to this day. But that time in my life gave me a deep respect for life & I do not want to lose any more friends.<br /><br />So - preachy or not - PLEASE get that shot & wear that mask. A long long time ago we all had to "have our shots" before starting school. Things like measles, polio, chicken pox & a host of other deadly diseases -- well we don't worry about those anymore. Dangerous? Now I am 72 years old & I am still here. Thank God for vaccines. So please be safe & be healthy. We love seeing you at Papa Robbs.<br /><p></p><p><a href="http://www.paparobbs.com">www.paparobbs.com</a><br /></p>Paparobbs Paradise Icehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00930434764879252810noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2526487541694619912.post-40375506890796653982021-06-17T08:01:00.007-04:002021-06-17T08:01:52.901-04:00<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgg51KL8dwlRH6ZEmBhEBjg9SCWNLBD1x5E2a-9lQrePsCDpnPL5wFtyYVojCF9tALORXwHQYcgtGTz0pdeMPaxLmqqjVLAvpT0nEGNVV53bCDGePcTsyDyej1UjViIMEt_PKO_IIQD-L-5/s454/Clip3.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="331" data-original-width="454" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgg51KL8dwlRH6ZEmBhEBjg9SCWNLBD1x5E2a-9lQrePsCDpnPL5wFtyYVojCF9tALORXwHQYcgtGTz0pdeMPaxLmqqjVLAvpT0nEGNVV53bCDGePcTsyDyej1UjViIMEt_PKO_IIQD-L-5/s320/Clip3.png" width="320" /></a></div><br /> BLOG - Food - 6/17/21<br /><br /><br />This blog news is short, but very important. Important because it pertains to how much & how often entertainers & various food vendors visit us all at Papa Robbs.<br /><br />Starting this week we will host food vendors - carts, trucks, trailers - who will offer various types of food, from hotdogs to gourmet sandwiches. But let's be honest about this. These vendors are the essence of "shop local". The basic All American of start up businesses, but the investment cost is sizable. Like all businesses, if profits aren't made such businesses move on or fail.<br /><br />So this is - from Papa Robb - a polite way of asking you to support these area small businesses. They are truly your neighbors. We have had many requests for food vendors so they are coming. Again, let's give them some support & they will return & others will join them. It is really as simple as that.<br /><br />The same goes for other guests such as Tripp The Clown, Balloon Artists, etc. These people really took a hard hit last year & many are "Buskers" working for tips.<br /><br />Papa Robbs is also a mobile vendor. We are at Frank Liske Park every weekend & can be found at all sorts of events around the area.<br /><br />We are all part of the local economy. Shop Local is more than a slogan. It is a way of life for many & is important to our community.<br /><br />We appreciate your business - thanks for listening.<br /><br /><p></p>Paparobbs Paradise Icehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00930434764879252810noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2526487541694619912.post-23746274677214556542021-05-29T07:31:00.003-04:002021-05-29T07:31:28.953-04:00<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcl-GEs0gT75Pdi3EbqWdCb9wTyAA6mjjGXtuAp3erXVT6QLrdSRWvNUdUgp28dnoVb8pJ2rQKcwXUNQogqtoEN9w3pY5vGOvduktbZX_KyQ33qlYx8tOO_ZBo3ufLU2LmmXCcWkTxOrhG/s454/Clip3.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="331" data-original-width="454" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcl-GEs0gT75Pdi3EbqWdCb9wTyAA6mjjGXtuAp3erXVT6QLrdSRWvNUdUgp28dnoVb8pJ2rQKcwXUNQogqtoEN9w3pY5vGOvduktbZX_KyQ33qlYx8tOO_ZBo3ufLU2LmmXCcWkTxOrhG/s320/Clip3.png" width="320" /></a></div>BLOG -- NEW HOURS NEW PLANS -- 5/29/21<br /><br /><br />We have some big news, but first we all need to give a huge vote of thanks. Obviously we at Papa Robbs have a big Thank You to our friends & customers. You have actually become a family over the past several years & really showed your faith last year.<br /><br />This year has been a strong & successful start, both at our store & our mobile sales/catering department. For that we are very grateful. We believe that we are not totally "out of the woods" yet, but from every indication we are well on our way. We still encourage you to remember those masks & most important - GET THAT SHOT! Hundreds if not thousands of people around the world worked very hard & set what seems to be a record in developing a vaccine. Let's use it.<br /><br />Now we are happy to announce a change of hours & days of operation as we return to our schedule of the past. On Monday June 7 we return to seven days a week. Our expanded hours will be: Sunday through Thursday, 11:00am until 9:00pm. Friday & Saturday, 11:00am until 10:00pm. Other plans include:<br /><br />Some entertainment will return: music, Tripp The Clown, face painting, etc. Some yard games will return & some food offerings will also return. We also hope to develop a Marketplace that will feature kids events, crafts & a vending market. As this grows we hope to add a small farmers' market.<br /><br />So please keep an eye on all of our social media sites for updates & remember we always need your ideas. Our "Flip Flop Hut" is an example. Slowly more flip flops are appearing & we hope you get a kick out of another bright spot at Papa Robbs.<br /><br />Thank you again & we hope to see you again soon.<p></p><p></p><p><br /> </p>Paparobbs Paradise Icehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00930434764879252810noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2526487541694619912.post-81224180863958858922021-05-17T04:15:00.001-04:002021-05-17T04:20:55.708-04:00<p> </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgLa9Z-J89lYLbTKpej8VtN65WKbTsJJf665C5DGsVjpdxCPBBe2KEhxIO5WyjbnVhHwmNI2gwpwexWk9a58cJ7EuYOHdFAkOYW8jOR3JQSKdwzuhAzUagFCnTOcTbGhKbkfQCF23hnZCyF/s247/blog+picture.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="184" data-original-width="247" height="202" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgLa9Z-J89lYLbTKpej8VtN65WKbTsJJf665C5DGsVjpdxCPBBe2KEhxIO5WyjbnVhHwmNI2gwpwexWk9a58cJ7EuYOHdFAkOYW8jOR3JQSKdwzuhAzUagFCnTOcTbGhKbkfQCF23hnZCyF/w271-h202/blog+picture.jpg" width="271" /></a></div>BLOG -- Good start, May 16, 2021<br /><br /><br />Well hello again everyone. Thought we would give it a few weeks then report in. So here's your report!<br /><br />Thank YOU, thank YOU for the best kick off in years. It has been a super start to our year & we owe it all to you - our family, friends, customers - everyone in this area. And we are just beginning - more on that later.<br /><br />We do have to remind you that we still have rules, so keep making us proud. We are well know as an inclusive place that is a safe & fun facility for families. We are really one of a kind for this area & yes, we still pretend we are a "shack on the beach".<br /><br />Now about one very important rule - MASKS. Over the past few days this has been very confusing to a lot of folks, but when it comes to Papa Robbs there is no confusion. We wear masks & we ENCOURAGE you to wear them too at Papa Robbs. Why? Simply because no one seems to be sure about this subject & it keeps changing. So - better safe than sorry.<br /><br />Papa Robb has had both shots now yet he still wears his mask. When asked why he explains: I have a drivers license too but I still fasten my seat belt. So let's all remain a little patient for a little longer. Why not. Should be easy now since we've had this practice.<br /><br />Now back to the future -- our operation days & hours will change soon so get ready for some summer fun. Entertainment will return for both kids & adults. Tripp The Clown will be back next month as will other activities. <br /><br />FOOD? Yes we have had requests so we will give our food truck friends another chance, but you must realize their success depends on your support. Watch all details in our blogs, texts & social media platforms.<br /><br />Gotta run for now, but one more note - watch for our mobile sales force - Papa On The Go. We are at Frank Liske Park every weekend so join us there as well as at our store.<br /><br />Now -- TAKE THE SHOT! <p></p><p><a href="http://www.paparobbs.com">www.paparobbs.com</a><br /></p><p> </p><p> </p>Paparobbs Paradise Icehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00930434764879252810noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2526487541694619912.post-34048647507197717932021-03-22T07:45:00.003-04:002021-03-22T07:45:13.749-04:00<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgYHyAT3pR4o6fymfZXXOz1GpSy4xBPFgGR-kWx5lXffnTlj8ETBWp05AH3HIteR4O5s8l8W3zXq1ONEUFHdC_u9OQlEeEjMYwaJ1Zx-VqUhEUyfqHCIjNL-ubDc589cNqDZP3oiVob2pr0/s454/Clip3.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="331" data-original-width="454" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgYHyAT3pR4o6fymfZXXOz1GpSy4xBPFgGR-kWx5lXffnTlj8ETBWp05AH3HIteR4O5s8l8W3zXq1ONEUFHdC_u9OQlEeEjMYwaJ1Zx-VqUhEUyfqHCIjNL-ubDc589cNqDZP3oiVob2pr0/s320/Clip3.png" width="320" /></a><br /></div><br /> SAFETY, SAFETY, MORE SAFETY<br /><br />Our Opening Day is approaching - Thursday, March 25, 11:00 am till 8:00 pm. It might very well have a wet opening, but rain or shine we are on. Keep a close watch on all of our social media for all the latest updates.<br /><br />From the earliest days Papa Robb's Paradise Ice was designed to resemble a vacation shack on the beach. Much more important, it was designed as an inclusive - very inclusive - place. Everyone, & we mean everyone, is welcome. A lot of things have changed in our world, but our policy has not changed.<br /><br />The world may have its rules & regulations, but Papa Robbs has its own set of regulations. Behavior & safety are the basis for Papa's Rules. We have been & remain the place where all people can bring their families - their children - and feel safe. Not bullies, no bullets, no bigots. Your children are safe with us.<br /><br />We are excited about having you back. The old place has been spruced up, cleaned up, some new paint. Not only can you now sit down, but our playground has been cleaned & sanitized. So come & have a good time seeing old friends & making new ones.<br /><br />While we have several ideas about special events, co-ops, etc for this year, we have two such specials from the very start. On Friday, March 26 our friends at the Sojourney Church will host a Happy Hour(s) at Papa Robbs. From 4:00 pm until our 8:00 pm closing there will be a $1.00 - one dollar - discount per item on all of our products. An extra reason to be Happy!<br /><br />On Saturday, March 27, our neighbors at Eva Drive Baptist Church will join us & host their annual Easter Party. Games, surprises & free hotdogs for all.

So, let's get to it.<br /><br />There is so much news that we must break it into a few blogs. It is VERY IMPORTANT to read our blogs, posts, etc as promise to do better with our communications this year. Social Media posts, texting, blogs, etc will be better & more frequent.<br /><br />Let's begin with a huge THANK YOU. Papa Robbs survived last year because so many of you supported us through a challenging year for us all. In spite of limitations & restrictions you came & supported us. <br />Churches were helpful also as were businesses that hosted important but innovative social events -- Drive In Socials is a fine example. So again - thank you to everyone. Now to this year:<br /><br />OPENING - weather permitting we will open on Thursday, March 25 at 11:00 am. We will be open every day except Mondays from 1:00 am to 8:00 pm. About May first these hours & days will change & expand.<br /><br />YES there will be seating & you will notice a few changes but we feel our seating choices will be safe. New ground covers, mulch, etc - all cleaned, painted & sanitized. <br /><br />PLAYGROUND will be open. Cleaned & professionally sanitized.<br /><br />GENERAL REGULATIONS, known far & wide as "Papa's Rules" are still in force. There have always meant simply as good manners & behavior. Be kind as we are all family at Papas. Remember your masks, masks & masks. <br /><br />Watch for more news to come & we will see you soon.</p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: left;"><a href="http://www.paparobbs.com">www.paparobbs.com</a></p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p>Paparobbs Paradise Icehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00930434764879252810noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2526487541694619912.post-7861058772498203022020-08-01T07:22:00.000-04:002020-08-01T07:22:23.809-04:00<div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjv3nc6csMzAao7FbiuzAY7XMQak6pg6utmbkqIEBbxhPY1CMQaDh5vz8vmDHj2X0RUQRKCX7OB4q8CyQWnplbjDmQ4m4-S5bW5ZbM_ZYm3bjmtRqBa_J6aIKXZ5bqYl_ij_hYQc8TFwzmM/s247/blog+picture.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="184" data-original-width="247" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjv3nc6csMzAao7FbiuzAY7XMQak6pg6utmbkqIEBbxhPY1CMQaDh5vz8vmDHj2X0RUQRKCX7OB4q8CyQWnplbjDmQ4m4-S5bW5ZbM_ZYm3bjmtRqBa_J6aIKXZ5bqYl_ij_hYQc8TFwzmM/s0/blog+picture.jpg" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjv3nc6csMzAao7FbiuzAY7XMQak6pg6utmbkqIEBbxhPY1CMQaDh5vz8vmDHj2X0RUQRKCX7OB4q8CyQWnplbjDmQ4m4-S5bW5ZbM_ZYm3bjmtRqBa_J6aIKXZ5bqYl_ij_hYQc8TFwzmM/s247/blog+picture.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><!--[if gte mso 9]><xml>

<p class="MsoNormal">Our season is now half over & it has been a challenge
for Papa Robbs as it has for businesses , especially small locally owned
businesses, across the country. Many will not survive, but are determined &
we are very fortunate. We have a good product, good corporate
partners/suppliers, a super staff & we have you - our friends &
customers.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Since some of this blog will not be what you want to hear
let us begin by saying how much we appreciate your support & loyalty.
Change & adjustment is never easy & we have all had to live with change
this year. But if we stay the course, do the right thing & support each
other then this too will pass. It will not be as soon as we would like & to
be honest, things will never be quite like they were before. With that in mind
let's get to the latest news, updates & plans.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">No matter what you hear otherwise, the Covid-19 virus is
real, dangerous & will be with us for a while longer. We hope & pray
for better days, smarter treatments & a vaccine that works. Until then we
must make smart decisions & truly believe that we are all in this together.
Your continued understanding, patience & support are needed now more than
ever.. Please note the following:</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">SAFETY -- Paramount; most important; basis for every
decision we make. The safety of you, your family & for our staff. We also
happen to believe in facts, numbers, statistics & science. We heed the
advice of our doctors, the CDC & our local health alliance.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">PLAYGROUND -- Our playground is closed & will remain
closed for the rest of this year. Public playgrounds are closed & we are
considered public. It is the law & it is smart policy. Before it does re
open there are repairs that need to be made & it will be clean &
professionally disinfected.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">SEATING & RESTROOMS -- Also closed for the foreseeable
future. Simply too dangerous & very hard to control. We do not have the
staff size. Plus the kids will not understand why they can not play on the
playground, etc. Not fair is it?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We do
allow tailgating with your family & we appreciate your help with keeping
our property neat & clean.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">That's it. We know it not the most pleasant of news but it
is the facts. We want things different too, but we want everyone safe - SAFE
SAFE SAFE. So be patient & remember that we need, welcome & appreciate
your support.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thank You,<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Papa
Robb</p>

BLOG - June 25, 2020 - seating, hours, etc.<br />Recently we have seen an increase in our customers asking about seating. We have said several times that Papa Robbs operates on its own phases & deadlines. While we attempt to base our decisions on current news about the Covid-19 Virus we realize that we have our own particular situations - party center, playground, large control area, etc. Also once again - our priority is SAFETY, for our customers & our staff. So please note the following:<br /><br />We will continue keeping the party center & the playground closed - maybe for the rest of this year. We will also continue to restrict all seating - no seating allowed. Tailgating is still allowed but we urge social distancing.<br />North Carolina now has a mask mandate. Obviously you can't eat while wearing a mask, but we also urge you to wear a mask while waiting to order. Let us ALL WORK TOGETHER to keep each other safe.<br /><br />We recently received an email from Kannapolis noting new case numbers that were over 250, plus North Carolina has now joined the alarmingly number of states with spikes in cases. Therefore we will keep our regulations in place for the time being.<br /><br />We will however make a small but important change in our hours of operation: starting the weekend of July 4 we will open 7 days a week from 12:00 noon to 8:00 pm, giving some extra time in the evening after work.<br />We know that this news is not what we all hoped for, but neither is this entire year & situation. Let us all remain patient & polite with each other & remember that eventually this too shall pass.<br />www.paparobbbs.comPaparobbs Paradise Icehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00930434764879252810noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2526487541694619912.post-90468314200513708002020-05-22T21:07:00.001-04:002020-05-22T21:07:06.324-04:00<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="MsoNormal">
HELLO AGAIN --<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We
have now been open three weeks & still in Phase 1 of Papa's<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>opening rules. As always it is all about
safety, safety, safety. Again we want to thank everyone for being very
cooperative & very supportive of each other. That is the way it has always
been at Papa Robbs & we expect that attitude to continue now & way
beyond this virus.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
This is how things stand at this time: Phase 1 will last
until mid to late June. Take out only. At that time , if all goes well &
depending on the overall breakout situation in our area, we should be able to
open up some limited seating with the social distancing requirements in place. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The playground will remain closed - probably through the
summer at least. Very difficult to separate kids once they start playing.
Besides, all playgrounds are still closed in NC.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Same with the party center - closed till further notice.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
NOW -- another reminder about our special shakes. The
Creamsicle Shake reminds us of the old Orange Creamsicle bars. Plus we now have
both SunDrop & Cheerwine Italian Ice, so come try something new.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
TAILGATING: Yes it is allowed, but social distancing is
important for non family members. Be creative & yes you can bring your own
take out lunch.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Thanks again for your help, patience &
understanding.----------------</div>

BLOG -- Opening Report -- May 7, 2020<br /><br /><br />What's next you may ask? But let's begin with news of our first week of the season. We've been open for less than a week & we are happy to report that things went well; actually better than expected. This of course was because of you.<br /><br />Everyone was VERY cooperative, with us & each other. Then again you guys are always cooperative & nice. And that's what makes Papa Robbs Papa Robbs. Now, you are already asking: "What's next"? Simply put - more of the same.<br /><br />We see & hear the same news as you: about Opening Up. States, counties, cities, towns & some businesses. In our opinion opening too fast, too much & too soon. We simply have most faith in science & medicine. We want to be wide open again for sure, not at the risk to our staff & you - our customer/friends.<br /><br />SAFETY -- SAFETY -- SAFETY. Tha't the name of this game. This virus is not going away as soon as some people think - so why take the risk? Besides, ole Papa Robb had a timetable of his own. Call it Papa's 4 Phases. We just opened so we are going to stick with our plan & we will try to open in baby steps. Our first phase was due to last about a month & that is still the plan.<br /><br />We want to thank all of you again for your great good manners. Papa's Grandmother would approve. Keep watching our social media as we try to do 2 or 3 posts a week & will soon begin our texting program for the year. Some surprises are on the way & a few door prizes to boot.<br /><br />Before we go - check our menu at our web site as we have a few new items & last year's special Brownie Sundae has become a regular item. Another hint: our Papa's Faves shakes are going fast so come get a taste.<br /><br />We'll talk again soon.<br /><a href="http://www.paparobbs.com/">www.paparobbs.com</a><br /><br />Paparobbs Paradise Icehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00930434764879252810noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2526487541694619912.post-17533859630475190312020-04-25T06:12:00.002-04:002020-04-25T06:13:43.905-04:00<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

BLOG --- PRE OPENING<br />
<br />
<br />
READY, SET, GO! -- Hello again. This might be our final blog before we open Apil 30. Our schedule is pretty tight as we also have our mobile department up & running so we are getting busier every day.<br />
<br />
This blog will be more of a list of important things to know, so let's get to it:<br />
<br />
1. As we noted in our last blog, safety is very important, thus all of our regular regulations will be in effect plus a few more. We ask that we all <br />
<br />
practice respect & patience.<br />
2. We will do social distancing with tape markings. There will be separate areas for entrance & exit marked with signage. You will see more hats, <br />
<br />
gloves & masks with entrance to our work area restricted to on duty employees only - no more visits allowed by friends, family members or off <br />
<br />
duty employees.<br />
3. All orders will be Carry Out/To Go only - no seating will be available. For the time being we will allow you to enjoy your treat in your vehicle if <br />
<br />
you so choose.<br />
4. Over the past several weeks we have discussed plans with our friendly competitors, health care workers, our doctors & other officials & will <br />
<br />
follow guidlines set out by the CDC.<br />
5. Again - this is all for your protection.<br />
6. All is not so drab however: Papa Robb's will be as bright & inviting as we can make it. Music will be there somewhere. Plus we have some <br />
<br />
exciting flavors & products. Both SunDrop & Cheerwine Italian Ice (while they last). Some ice cream flavors such as the return of Banana Pudding, <br />
<br />
a new Birthday Cake, Cherry Vanilla & Crazy Vanilla. Other specials will show up over the season. <br />
7. Papa has some new Faves & they are interesting: We now offer a Cheerwine Shake, A Lemonade Shake & an Orange Creamsicle Shake. <br />
<br />
Give em all a try.<br />
8. Food rumors are true. Sometime in May we plan to offer some food choices. These are at YOUR requests so remember they will need your <br />
<br />
support to keep serving. Hot Dogs, Burgers, Bar B Que are among our plans.<br />
9. We are excited & look forward to seeing you again, so mark your calendars, tell your friends & we see you again starting Thursday, April 30, <br />
<br />
11:00 am - 7:00 pm<br />
10. Thanks again for your support & please Be Safe<br />

OPENING DATE SET FOR APRIL 30<br />
<br />
<br />
Well everybody it looks like the time has arrived. We plan to open for the year on Thursday, April 30. Hours will be 11:00 am till 7:00 pm, Tuesday - Sunday. Closed on Mondays.<br />
<br />
Our plan is to do three short blogs with info about our plans, details, rules, etc.. Very important that you read these blogs & share them with as many people as possible.<br />
<br />
Over the past several weeks we have been fortunate to have been able to meet with many people & discuss our options & plans. Customers, health care professionals, other similar businesses, even a doctor or two. We feel our plans are good, reasonable, but open for changes along the way. So -----<br />
<br />
SAFETY IS OUR PRIORITY: You will notice some changes right away. Open for take out orders to go ONLY. You can walk up & order from our window or order by email or text (info on these methods coming in regular posts & blog). All of our seating areas, tables, etc have been taped/roped off as has our playground. NO SEATING available.<br />
<br />
We will offer our full menu - this has changed also with some new flavors of ice cream & specials plus we new offer (while supplies last) both SunDrop & Cheerwine Italian Ice! Watch for other specials to come.<br />
<br />
Rules are more important than ever. Social Distancing will be followed. Patience is very important. In other words - simply behave like the great Papa Robbs customers you have always been. Papa Robbs has always been different. It is truly a place for families , but also a "Family Place". This is a place where everyone is welcome - we consider us all -- customers & staff alike - are like a family. Thank you for that feeling.<br />
<br />
For now please mark your calendars: Thursday, April 30 , 11 - 7, Pray for reasonable weather. We look forward to seeing you again.<br />
<br />
WATCH OUR SOCIAL MEDIA & BLOGS FOR MORE EXCITING DETAILS.<br />

BLOG -- OPENING DELAYED April, 2020<br /><br /><br />Warning: this may seem like all bad news, but it is not. We like to put a positive outlook on most things, & as difficult as these times are in many ways they are bringing most of us closer together.<br /><br />By our post you know we are delaying our opening this year. We do not know how long this delay may be -- and it may be piece meal. For instance, our mobile units may be up & running very soon.<br /><br />The reason for this delay varies. From our end we simply ran out of time. We are bright, cheery & as clean as we can be (except of this pollen). But other businesses face the same challenges we do so we are short on info signs, banners, etc. These are all very important to the overall goal of safety & convenience.<br /><br />Our `delivery options are not in place on the scale they should be - same for curbside & ordering options. The majors (Grubhub, Doordash, Ubereats) are under siege, busier than ever & backlogged. They are working as quickly as possible & we respect their situations.<br /><br />Our employees & family members have their own challenges. Even this allergy season seems worse. Our vehicles turn yellow overnight!<br /><br />Please be patient. We are not going anywhere. If others are open please visit them for they too are trying to save their businesses. And we will see you as soon as we can.<br /><br />Again, Thank You & please be safe.<br />

BLOG --<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>OPENING DAY
& BEYOND -- MARCH 29, 2020</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Hello again. We're a few days late with this blog, but there
were<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>many decisions to be made plus we
knew there would be changes & new situations for our state & our
community. Yes we are all urged to shelter in place as much as possible, but
there are also allowances to this. So - let's get to it:</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
This one of those good news, bad news deals. Obviously we
all are facing a great challenge. We urge all of you to be patient, be kind
& always remember that we all have the same concerns. We will attempt here
to do this in list form. But we do urge you to stay involved & check our
social media as often as possible. Remember that we have the Papa Robb's Club -
sign up today & receive a weekly text message update on specials & any
changes & adjustments we make as we go forward..</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Therefore please note the following:</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
1. We will open our store on Thursday, April 2. Open six
days a week, closed Mondays. Our hours (subject to change) will be 11:00 am
until 7:00 pm</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
2. There are several new regulations & restrictions as
follows:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>No seating available - all
orders are take out "To Go". The playground & the party center
are closed. As all of you know Papa Robbs has always had some rules about
behavior. These are now more important than ever. Simply put - good manners
& respect for your neighbors. After all, we are known as THE family place.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
3. We will offer you SEVERAL WAYS TO ORDER & GET YOUR
TREATS. Some available from opening<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>day,
others will take longer & be phased in. So pay attention as even old Papa
Robb gets confused:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>You can simply show
up & order from our serving window. You can pull into our parking lot &
order & we will deliver to your car (credit & debit card orders, plus
other electronic options with this option). </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
We are working on other ordering methods such as emailing or
texting your orders. Hopefully ready by April 2 or within a few days. There
MIGHT be a new phone number for those orders but not settled as of today -
depends on equipment.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
FOOD DELIVERY SERVICES: We are in the process of arranging
agreements, contracts, etc with food delivery companies. Naturally they are
flooded with requests so this may take some time, but not much. Options will
be:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>GRUBHUB; DOORDASH; UBEREATS. You
will be able to order directly through their apps or through our social media
linking to their apps. We are also exploring some options with our relationship
with THE SQUARE. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Obviously we are learning a lot as we go. Fortunately we
have some experience with TO GO orders. But some things do not change. Yes our
prices have changed for this year, but there are no "special " menu
prices for take out - including through outside businesses. Everyone pays the
same basic price.</div>

LATEST BLOG OF MARCH 16, 2020<br /><br /><br />WE'VE GOT YOU COVERED-------------------<br />Given the recent developments surrounding COVID-19, we want to reassure everyone that we are closely following the guidelines of the CDC and are doubling down on our efforts to maintain the highest level of restaurant sanitation and cleanliness for our customers and staff.<br /><br />Last week we ended our blog with a list of topics we would be covering in the future, some for this week. But, as we all know the world has changed in a week & that includes our county & surrounding counties.<br /><br />The Coronavirus is here Period. New medications will offer both a cure as well as preventive vaccines. But - what to do now is the question. So please note right now just some of what we have planned at Papa Robbs to make your visit with us enjoyable & as risk free as possible. We plan to accomplish that by listening to experts & watching what the most successful fast food companies are doing or planning to do.<br /><br />With that in mind please note the following:<br /><br />1. We still plan to open April 2, but circumstances could delay that date. So PLEASE check all of our social media as often as possible.<br />2. Our Papa Robb's Club will start up again with weekly short text messages to keep you up to date. You can still sign up - check our web site - www.paparobbs.com<br />3. You will note some changes at Papa Robbs. Some big some small. The biggest is some new fences as the DOT has bought some of our property for turn lanes at our intersection - good news in the long run.<br />4. This still leaves us plenty of room & space to spread out. This space & being outdoors helps simply because you are not forced into small spaces.<br />5. Our entire area is being cleaned, power washed & painted.<br />

THE BLOG RETURNS --<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>March 8, 2020</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Yes it is true believe it or not: The Blog Has Returned.
Appropriately it is being written on the first morning of Daylight Savings Time
- a sure sign of Spring as well as the approaching Opening Day of Papa Robbs.
Which is April 2<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>(weather challengers
permitting).</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
That all said, allow me - Papa Robb - (yes the real one) to
apologize for "Blog Failure" in the past. I always have good
intentions of better blogging but always fail. This year will be better so pay
attention this year. There will be more & better news - I promise - again.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The blogs will be shorter , but more frequent so let's get
started.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Last year was a CHALLENGE. The worse was the loss of our
brother-in-law Scott. Naturally everyone in our family business was affected.
Almost a year later<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Scott's death is
still with us. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Let's add in much weather challenges - always a big deal -
the NC Dept. of Transportation (more on that to come), growth problems, family
illnesses - well you get the picture. In spite of all that our year was pretty
good. Our store has some ragged edges but business was steady & our mobile
vending was bigger than ever. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Our next blog will begin details of recent changes &
changes to come, but we will close this blog with a simple list of hints:</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
1. The Papa Robb's Club will return in April with weekly
Texts of important news.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
2. Our ice cream line up will increase.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
3. Music & other special events will continue -
hopefully bigger than ever.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
4. Quality of products & attitudes will remain &
become even more important.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
5. Based on #4 note that Papa Robbs welcomes all & is
very inclusive. Yes there are rules, but being well mannered & good
behavior are paramount.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
6. Families are our most important product.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
7. Fun remains a high priority.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
8. The DOT project (turn lanes) might begin so PLEASE bare
with them & with us.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
9. I proomise better blogs</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
10. I did mention: FUN, FUN & MORE FUN?</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
That's it see you again real soon with hopefully some HUGE
news.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

CHANGES FOR THIS YEAR - 7/7/19<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Good news & bad news: The bad news is that we are making some changes. The good news is that we are making some changes!<br />
<br />
CHANGES ARE IMMEDIATE -- "Wacky Weekends" are dead & probably were dead on arrival. Papa Robb was wacko for that idea to begin with. But - some good comes from some bad. In auto racing you sometimes slow down to speed up. Well, we are going backwards to go forward - Read on -------------<br />
<br />
FESTIVAL FRIDAYS return. It is that simple. Our guests will vary such as Tripp The Clown, Balloon Artists, Face Painting, etc. Events such as Fiesta Night, Vending Specials, Topping Bars, Games , Craft Nights, DJ Music, etc will all return. Our next Vending event is this Friday & Saturday Nights. We will also feature our new friends with their Taco Truck every Friday -- plus several other little surprises.<br />
<br />
SATURDAYS -- Music & Open Mic will continue so join us every Saturday with host Chris "Big Hat Larry". And bring your talent & jin the fun.<br />
<br />
SUNDAYS will return as Family Fun Game Day. Yard games, card games & board games. Most important, Sundays are the day for family & friends to simply relax & visit with one another while enjoying a super cool tropical treat.<br />
<br />
OTHER NEWS -- Hey, our new Papa Robb's Club is growing. This basically a communication club where we use texting as a better way of reaching you with news & specials. Sort of a less is more deal. We appreciate your interest & support.<br />
<br />
Our weekend hours have changed & we are now open until 10:00 pm on Friday & Saturday nights. This at your request so come on out.<br />
<br />
As you all know we have had weather challenges this year - as we have the last two years. Thank you so much for your support when we have weather problems such as a flooded parking lot & playground. We do offer our treats "To Go" plus you can use Door Dash & Uber Eats for ordering & delivery of Papa Robb's treats.<br />
<br />
Last - DO NOT forget that we have a catering department. Call 704/ 425-5552 or email us at info@paparobbs.com for details when planning your next party.<br />

BLOG # 4 --- April 2, 2019<br />
<br />
We are open at last & the weather was super. Now we should all expect some more cool days , but by & large most of winter is gone & spring is roaring in. So ---- make your plans to visit us soon.<br />
<br />
This blog is about the importance of communication & about our new PAPA ROBBS CLUB. The "Cub" is really an improvement over our current newsletter group, but with more parts to it. The big deal is that by joining the club (it is free & very easy to do) you can get more news with less hassle - sort of a less is more deal. Plus you will be eligible<br />
for specials, discounts & some prizes - both big & small.<br />
<br />
While texting news will be important we will NOT be sending you all kinds of text messages - probably about one a week. Plus a blog about every 7 - 10 days & fewer Facebook posts. The goal is to simplify your lives & ours but still get important event news to you on a usable & friendly basis.<br />
<br />
You can sign up at our store in person with a paper form or via a scan bar code or on line. A link is at the end of this blog - just click & sign up! It is as easy as that.<br />
<br />
Don't forget that we also have an events calendar on our web site, www.paparobbs.com<br />
& with all the special events we have planned for this year it is very important for you to stay informed.<br />
<br />
Oh - about those prizes??? Starting now, everyone who has signed up or does sign up for the next 6 - 7 weeks will be entered into our special drawing to win a GRILL for those summer months. That's right, you can win a grill so sign up today. Nothing to buy - it is all free. There will be some other prizes also plus we will give away a bike every month all summer long.<br />
<br />
That's for now - next time we will talk about - MUSIC. Yes, music will return this year more than ever. Thanks & join the Papa Robbs Club soon - you may be our big winner.<br />

PLAYGROUND & MOBILE SALES<br />
<br />
There are many changes at Papa Robbs this year - some small, some big. In our previous blogs (end of last year & first two of this year ) we've mentioned our new Papa Robbs Club, changes in our weekends, our new door prize/surprise package, & our daily schedule/events. We are very excited about our NEW PLAYGROUND!<br />
<br />
That's right, if it would just stop raining our new playground could arrive & be installed. Now this new playground looks almost just like the old one, but there are a few changes & the platform is a little larger. But everybody seemed to like what we had so we just kept the same overall look.<br />
<br />
Our old playground was just that - old. Harder to keep it as clean as we wanted & to keep repairing what was needed. Happy to report that the playground is now at a local church & we hope those kids get a lot of happy use from it.<br />
<br />
PAPA ON THE GO -- our mobile sales were busier than ever last year & this year could be even busier. Our first event will be mid March at the Quarter Midget race track in Salisbury & we are always excited to watch these kids race their cars & see old friends & make new ones. Mid April brings the annual Special Olympics. We are very honored to be a small part of this wonderful event & we will bring more news about that in April.<br />
<br />
We are already booking birthday parties, school & church fund raisers, & other special events as far ahead as October so please contact us as early as possible about your party or function. We do have more than one option for you -- inside or outside with a variety of product choices so again, please call as early as possible.<br />
<br />
Communications, communications, communications - our very important subject next blog.<br />
<br />
Rest In Peace Sam Bass<br />

FUN - PRIZES & MORE FUN - MORE PRIZES<br />
<br />
This is the year of more fun & more prizes & some changes to our weekly schedule & BIG changes to our ways of communicating to you. But first a quick word about our blogs this year: our blogs will be more important this year. Until we open on March 28 we will post our blog every 10 days or so. Once open we will blog every week & post on Mondays. That Monday blog will contain the weekly schedule & will include any special event or contest news - so it is important to check out the blogs this year.<br />
<br />
This blog is mostly about our weekly schedule change so let's get to it.<br />
<br />
MONDAY -- Our Flavor of The Week announcement. For this announcement day there will be a 20% discount on the Flavor of The Week. Sometimes there may be more than one flavor or product for that week.<br />
TUESDAY -- Mommy Day. A special welcome for all Moms & all Mommy Groups are very welcome also.There will be door prizes & other surprises for Moms everywhere plus a game or toy or more for the kids. (note our playground here/news below)<br />
WEDNESDAY -- Grandparent Day. Bring the grandkids for fun & games. BONUS: a 20% discount for all over 60 years old. We are also working on some ideas for music in the evenings.<br />
THURSDAY -- Thirsty Thursday returns with an extra splash or two. A 25% discount on Floats, Shakes, Freezes & Slushies -- all day from start to finish!<br />
FRIDAY -- Wacky Weekend Kickoff Day. Start our three day special events with the biggest of them all - Friday. More fun than ever before.<br />
SATURDAY -- Wacky Weekend Party. Some bigger than others , but always some little extra treat or surprise.<br />
SUNDAY -- More Wacky Weekend. A game, a dance, or music or balloons -- or some other surprise. And always a prize or two -- or more.<br />
<br />
Have a great week -- big playground news in our next blog.<br />

PAPA's SCOOP NEWSLETTER -- DECEMBER 2018<br />
<br />
First, an apology & a thank you. The apology is for not staying in closer touch this year & the vote of thanks is for all of you who supported us this year - a year that has been challenging to say the least.<br />
<br />
The weather, the weather, the weather. When it wasn't too hot it was raining & it mostly rained. This year was the worst for rain & it tried to kill us for sure. We had water damage, flooded parking lot, party area & playground. Rain forced us to close more this year than all past years combined.<br />
<br />
If regular old rain wasn't enough there were hurricanes to deal with. Not just one, but two arrived within the same month. Suffice to say the year was "interesting" weather wise & we have seen enough rain.<br />
<br />
So once again, a big THANK YOU for keeping us afloat - so to speak. Now for the good news.<br />
<br />
Papa Robb's Paradise Ice is making lots of changes for next year. It will take more than one newsletter plus a couple of blogs to fully explain. This newsletter will simply outline what's coming in 2019.<br />
<br />
1. Our weekly calendar of events & specials will change & will be posted in early January. So keep a close eye on our web site's events calendar.<br />
2. Our mobile sales/catering department & our store operations will be more separate than in the past.<br />
3. More emphasis is being placed on families - more so than in the past. More games, more events & tons of prizes -- more fun.<br />
4. Festival Friday will remain but with a new name & will be the kick off day for an entire weekend of games & special events. Our plan to provide a more carnival midway effect.<br />
5. Our playground has become old so -- we are getting a new one!<br />
6. Our social media will change somewhat -- simpler, but better. Less will be more - quality over quantity. We will need your help for this one.<br />
7. We will be forming a social club for you. This will result in better ways for us to communicate with you in ways that are more "user friendly" for you. More specials, games, fun & prizes for you - kids & adults.<br />
<br />
These are just a few of the things we have planned. From you we need you to PLEASE look over the contact info we have for you as we will need you to update this early next year. We will make your job easier & more fun - that we promise (hint: there will be PRIZES involved).<br />
<br />
We'll have more coming early January but hey, it is the Holidays, so a HUGE MERRY CHRISTMAS & HAPPY NEW YEAR.<br />
<br />
Be safe & we'll see you in 2019.<br />
