Ben & Jerry’s “Carolina Classic” Scooper Olympics. The 13th Annual Ben & Jerry’s Scooper Olympics expands including teams from Birkdale, Greensboro, Chapel Hill, Charlotte and Davidson North Carolina. Inter-shop Competition Brings Ice Cream Athletics to Foxcroft Shop in Charlotte. Davidson, NC (June 18, 2013) – It’s time for the 13th Annual Scooper Olympics in Charlotte, NC, where ice cream meets good ol’ competition. On Wednesday, June 19th at 10 a.m., the Foxcroft scoop shop will open its doors for ice cream and sports fans alike. Each of the Ben & Jerry’s shops in the North Carolina area will compete with four-person teams who will swirl their way through the ice cream games with chunk-filled events like Brownie Special Relay Race, Speed Smoothie Making, Ben & Jerry’s Trivia, five minute Cake Decorating, and more! The Greensboro team garnered the coveted title last in 2011 and will vie for the trophy again at 7600 Foxcroft East Shopping Center Charlotte, NC. “We’re kicking off summer with flavor-filled fun for the whole family,” said Karen Toney, Manager of the Davidson Ben & Jerry’s. “Our store started this enthusiastic, inter-shop competition and it has grown to an inter-state event that has included scoopers from Greensboro, Myrtle Beach and Charleston, SC in years past. New to this year’s event, is the Teams from Chapel Hill and the newest Scoop Shop in Birkdale Village. The Davidson scoopers have been training all year long for this and desire to reclaim the title!” The winning team will have its name engraved on the Winner’s Plaque, which is carved with an Olympic-style logo of five linked ice cream cones. The plaque will be displayed in the winning shop until next year’s competition. Ben & Jerry’s fans are invited to watch the games on June 19th and cheer on their local shop. Prizes include winning the “spoils” from the events. Brownie Special Sundae anyone? Let the scoops fly and the games begin!
