Little Scoops of Excitement come to Orange Park
Little Scoops, The Sweetest Party Place in Town, is Coming to Orange Park in August

     Blauvelt, New York (July 6, 2008)— Little Scoops is excited to announce the opening of their 10th location, expanding the Little Scoops brand to Florida. The latest franchised location is located in Orange Park, Florida and will be opening on August 1st,  with the Grand Opening Celebration taking place September 13th.

	Jeff Purisch, owner of the newest Little Scoops location, a long time resident of the Jacksonville area, saw a need for a place where children can celebrate in an environment tailored to them. "The opportunity to be around and be part of "fun" everyday and the proven track record of Little Scoops made opening this location an easy one," said Jeff. 


     A Little Scoops party includes time in the party room where children play a variety of interactive games that are set to popular, age-appropriate music. Theme parties are also available. The children are then served a choice of food along with birthday cake and when it is time for the ice cream, the party moves to the front room, which is decorated like a retro 1950’s ice cream parlor. The children get to create their own sundaes with a wide selection of colorful toppings. 

Little Scoops of Orange Park will offer special events and will also include a retail ice cream parlour, open daily, where kids and friends can stop by and enjoy ice cream in a "kid-sized" setting. 

               “We’re very excited to bring Little Scoops to Orange Park,” said company co-founder, Michelle Violetto.  “Little Scoops is a concept that just works. I think the magic probably lies in the simplicity of it all.  Who doesn’t like ice cream?”
