Considering the local frozen treats of CaseysSnowballs that helps to sweetly beat the heat.
What's the difference, really? Between a so-called snowball and most of the other frozen-water confections that are available from trucks and trailers and more permanent structures all over this city in our hottest months? Isn't it all just ice, ice, baby?
Chapman's mom and dad – Pattye Henderson and Cliff Chapman – were enchanted by the frozen-treat business, its chilly pleasures, and the welcoming community around it."So my dad got a job washing bottles here," says Chapman,"and then he learned how to make snowballs." And eventually decided, with his employers' blessings, to set up a similar place of his own across town.
"People always think we open on Memorial Day," says Chapman."But we don't – we open on March 1, or around there. And we stay open until about Halloween. We're closed for about four months of each year and open for eight months."
