The Annual Ice Cream Freeze Off, sponsored by the Walters Chamber of Commerce, was a great success this year. We had a lot of entries. The entries were all delicious, and easily some of the best ice cream anyone could’ve ever tasted! The 1st place winner in the Chocolate/Vanilla Category was Evi Sutterfield, with her delicious vanilla ice cream. The 1st place winner in the Specialty Category was Riccy Sutterfield, with his incredible peanut butter cup ice cream. The 1st place winner in the Fruit Category was David Belcher, with his delicious strawberry ice cream! David’s entry also won Grand Champion. First place for each division received $50 cash, and Grand Champion also received $50 cash, so these contestants won a total of $200 cash! After the judges made their decisions, everyone sold their ice cream to the eagerly awaiting crowd. There was so much delicious ice cream! The looks on our brave (as one had stated, “It’s a tough job, but someone has to do it!”) judges’ faces were priceless when they saw all the ice cream being set in front of them. A huge thank you to our wonderful judges, Deborah Connely, Gerald Hayes, and Edith Kitchen. Also, thank you to Sonic for donating the cups and spoons! If you missed it this year, or for that matter, any part of the Cotton County Free Fair, you missed a wonderful time! David Belcher, 1st place fruit category and 1st overall.
