Dear Chicago,



Rainbow Cone is celebrating 100 years at the original location (9233 S. Western Ave.) right here in Beverly! Join us where Chicago first fell in love with the iconic five-flavor Rainbow Cone back in 1926. The official birthday celebration is Sunday, August 9th from 11:00 am - 3:00 pm. There will be a special birthday cake cutting ceremony. To keep the celebration going, Rainbow Rewards members can enjoy BOGO Original Rainbow Cones all day long. Guests will also have the chance to win special birthday prizes, from free treats, gift cards, and branded merch to the grand prize: a private Rainbow Cone Truck party valued at $1,000. Prizes are available while supplies last, so come early, eat cake, grab ice cream, win a little something sweet, and help us celebrate 100 years of Rainbow Cone magic!


Sincerely,


Matthew J. O'Shea

Alderman, 19th Ward
