Braum's Ice Cream and Burgers holds ribbon cutting in Sand Springs

After six months of closure, the Braum's Ice Cream and Burger shop is back in business in south Sand Springs. The store held a grand opening and ribbon cutting Tuesday afternoon.

The store completely demolished its old building and parking lot, rebuilding from the ground up to offer a larger, better organized building with more parking and a quicker drive-through. 

The new building reopened last Tuesday and will be celebrating all this week with giveaways. Items such as high-definition televisions, gaming consoles, computers, and free store merchandise and food can be won with scratch cards inside the store. 

On Saturday, April 14th, free cones will be handed out to kids age fifteen and younger, accompanied by a parent, between 1:00 p.m. and 6:00 p.m. 

According to the store manager, the new marquee is the first of its kind in the whole organization and is an original design by Bill Braum.
