The new idea was a big sucess. Ice cream sales increased dramatically this year over previous years. Customers were able to choose from a larger selection of flavors and had the option of a small cup, large cup, sugar cone, and waffle cone. Duties include meeting with the LSU Creamery Manager, choosing popular ice cream flavors, keeping accurate inventory, organizing member participation, product pricing, and advertising the Ice Cream Sales through various media. Each day is divided into two 6 hour slots.
Clubs earn a percentage of the profits depending on how many slots they choose to work.
Also, during the rodeo, ASC sells 20 oz soft drinks in the stands to the rodeo patrons. Top sellers receive cash awards for their efforts. DSC is noted for pulling the most slots each year. Our club members work hard during the week of the Livestock Show and Rodeo in order to earn money to send representatives to regional and nations conventions. The Dairy Science Club assists the Kiwanis members in selling tickets for the pancake breakfast and also, helps serve the breakfast.
