No rain on this parade
Gilroy’s Polar Express mobile Ice Cream Trolley and DJ made its Grand Debut at the Memorial Day Parade. This fun little ice cream trolley drove through the parade with its owners, husband and wife team, Kelli and Dave Aita, bumping beats, waving and smiling and introducing themselves to the community. “People were dancing in the streets and waving and smiling right back at us. It was an amazing community experience to be a part of,” Kelli said. “My grandfather was a merchant marine that was honored with two Purple Hearts in World War II and just passed last year at the age of 97. It was a great way to honor him on Memorial Day.” The Polar Express Ice Cream Trolley and DJ is available for private parties, weddings, fundraisers and any other event you can think of.
