The Eastshore ice cream social was really a nice affair. Fifty-five residents gathered for the event on the Robert Manis lawn. Sue Adams baked and decorated a unique cake for the social; it was in the shape of a water tower with the word "Eastshore" on it. The next meeting will be September 20 at Cottonwood Point.
