Dairy Queen giving away free ice cream on first day of spring

Minneapolis, Minn. – Dairy Queen is celebrating the first day of spring with “Free Cone Day.”

Ice cream lovers can get a free small vanilla soft-serve cone at participating locations on Monday, March 20.

WXIA-TV reports Barry Westrum, executive vice president of Marketing for American Dairy Queen Corporation said, “Soft serve is part of our brand DNA and the taste is unmatchable. The DQ soft-serve cone fans have come to love is one of the most recognized treats in the world and is fondly referred to as the ‘cone with the curl on top. We can’t think of a better way to show our appreciation to fans, kick off the spring and support such an amazing cause than with a Free Cone Day.”

Dairy Queen will also be accepting donations for Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals.

Last year alone, DQ helped to raise more than $200,000 for the charity.
