We believe in giving back to the community

that has been so good to us throughout the years...


We have established scholarships

in our Dad’s memory in the business department and in our Mom's memory in the fashion and design department

at the local high school,

not for the smartest kid, but for the kid who tries the hardest...

That's all our parents ever asked of us.

We also run monthly contests and promotions

to raise money for those on Long Island “having a tough time and in need of a helping hand”

Photos from our annual Free Egg Cream Day...

kids and "kids-at-heart" from 6 months to 96 years young have been at Egg Cream Day throughout the years...

On January 14th, our Dad would have been 103 years young... To honor him and his love of blackjack, beemans, and clove gum, for every 3 packs you purchase (in any combination), you will be entered into a drawing for the fun, cool, retro poster below.  The lucky ticket will be picked on February 29th!...
