The Expedition Sundae!

A few weeks ago, Museum of the Earth staffers took a trip to Purity Ice Cream to have one of their delicious Expedition Sundae's!

For every one of these sundaes sold Purity donates $2 to the Museum of the Earth! These sundaes help to support what we do every day at the Museum.


This REALLY BIG SUNDAE includes:

8 scoops of your favorite Purity Ice Cream
2 home made brownies
1 home made chocolate chip cookie
3 sundae sauces
4 sundae toppings



The sundae comes in a big bowl with lots of spoons. This is definitely a sundae you can't eat all by yourself!



After your next visit to the Museum troop down the hill to Purity and have your own Expedition Sundae!

Thanks Purity!
