Chocolate Ice Cream Day Perfect Opportunity for Local Ice Cream Trick Competition

June 5, 2011 - PRLog -- Amy's Ice Creams invites Austin to the 7th Annual Trick Olympics on Tuesday, June 7, 2011 (National Chocolate Ice Cream Day) starting at 7:00 pm in the parking lot of Amy's 6th Street location (1012 West 6th Street, 78703).  The Trick Olympics celebrate the fun and creative atmosphere that Amy's Ice Creams is known for!

Scoops (Amy's name for servers) come from all 15 stores across Texas to compete in three categories including: Best Solo Trick, Best Team Trick & Trick Decathlon Winner. The Trick Decathlon is a race against time where scoops have to perform 10 random tricks in rapid succession.

"Mama always said, 'Don't play with your food' and at Amy's we not only encourage it; but we turned it into an art form." said Amy Simmons President and CEO of Amy's Ice Creams. "This event is uniquely Austin & the only ice cream trick competition held in the world!"

The unique ice cream trick competition enables Amy's Ice Cream employees to help raise funds for a local non-profit charity. This year the scoops chose CASA of Travis County and will hold a raffle and collect donation to help raise money & awareness for the Court Appointed Special Advocated organization.

Look out, it's a bird! It's a plane! No, it's flying ice cream flung by the best ice cream slinging tricksters Texas has to offer!  Watch the Trick Olympics Teaser Video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6mOpkxeYuxg.
