Cold Stone Creamery held a video contest this past year, asking franchises to donate cakes to local charities and make a video. Well, our local Cold Stone won the whole dang thing. From General Manager Katie LeBrun ...

"My crew and I began working on this video in September and submitted our entry at the end of November. We were challenged by Cold Stone Creamery to creatively donate cakes to a local charity and create a video about the experience. Videos were submitted by Cold Stone crews all across the nation. On Wednesday, December 15th, our video from the Eau Claire store was announced as the grand prize winner! What this means is that Cold Stone Creamery is going to send us a [$5,000] check to give to the Literacy Volunteers of the Chippewa Valley."

Wow. Our local Cold Stoners presented the check to CVLV yesterday. Here’s the video:
