Frosty Fundraiser: Buy a Custard Cup Poolside to Help Gingerwood

Oak Forest's Gingerwood Community Pool and 2 Sisters Frozen Custard team up Sunday afternoon for a benefit to raise money for the pool. Find out the details.

In what's become an annual tradition, 2 Sisters Frozen Custard will be returning to Gingerwood Community Pool for a fundraising event Sunday.

The Midlothian-based dessert shop will be selling custard cups for $2, with proceeds going to the pool. The event is made possible by the owners of 2 Sisters, Pat and Lisa Callaghan, who are also pool members. Last year, the one-day fundraiser earned more than $150 for the pool at 5124 Aldersyde Road.
