'Cone With A Cop' Event Scheduled At Meadowlark Dairy

PLEASANTON, CA — With summer fast approaching, there’s hardly any better news than free ice cream. The Pleasanton Police Department will host its annual Cone with a Cop event, in which attendees can enjoy one free ice cream cone from Meadowlark Dairy. Like the PPD's Coffee with a Cop events, Cone with a Cop is designed to allow the community to get to know their police department, and raise any questions or concerns they may have.

Over 1800 cones were distributed last year, the department said in a news release.

The event will take place on Wednesday, May 31 from 2-5 p.m. at Meadowlark Dairy at 57 West Neal Street. Due to the anticipation of large crowds, a nearby portion of Railroad Avenue between Division Avenue and Neil Street will be closed to vehicles from noon to 5:30. To avoid traffic, attendees are encouraged to walk or bike.

No registration is required.

“In collaboration with Meadowlark Dairy, we’re proud to offer this wonderful opportunity to connect with our community while enjoying a cone of ice cream,” PPD Chief David Swing said in a statement.
