Moline's Popsicle Pitstops

The City of Moline and the Moline Parks and Recreation Department wants you to come to celebrate National Park and Recreation Month once again this year. They’ll be at a different park every Thursday in July offering free popsicles during these Popsicle Pitstops, provided and sponsored by Whitey’s Ice Cream.

Plus, during each Popsicle Pitstop, there will be other fun giveaways, yard games, and handouts, sponsored by Dead Poet’s Espresso.

Come enjoy a cool treat on the Moline Parks and Recreation Department as a “thank you” for supporting the department throughout the year.
