Summer in Adams County means sunshine, family outings, backyard barbecues… and, of course, ice cream.
Gettysburg Connection is inviting readers to settle one of the area’s most delicious debates by taking part in our first-ever Summer Ice Cream Readers’ Poll.
Who serves your favorite cone? Which shop has the creamiest soft serve, the richest homemade flavors, the biggest scoops, or the sundae you simply can’t resist?
Now’s your chance to make your voice heard.
Just click here, find your favorite ice cream shop, and cast your vote. If there’s a special flavor, fond memory, or reason you keep coming back, leave a comment and tell us why. We love hearing the stories behind your favorite summer traditions.
The poll is all about celebrating the locally owned ice cream shops that make summers in Adams County a little sweeter.
Voting is open now and continues through Labor Day 2026. We’ll announce Gettysburg Connection’s Summer Ice Cream Readers’ Choice winner shortly after the holiday.
Whether you’re loyal to a classic vanilla cone, a towering banana split, homemade hard ice cream, frozen custard, or an over-the-top milkshake, every vote counts.
So grab a spoon, cool off, and help us crown Gettysburg’s favorite place for ice cream!
