Bass Lake residents can have their ballcock and eat it, too, this summer.

Locally-family-owned plumbing company 12 Plummers Plumbing  will add a new service in 2015 by providing occasional curbside ice cream treats in select neighborhoods.

Availability will depend on service-call schedules and dairy supplies.

“It’s a way for us to give back to the youth of our community,” said co-owners Dick, Rick, Jack, Zak, Steve, Jake, Carol, Cody, Susan, Peter, Paul and Mary Plummer. “Besides, we need to make more money. You can’t survive just fixing sinks. Multitasking is a must. Did we mention it’s to benefit our town’s youth?”

They said.

In place of traditional ice cream truck music, children should listen for a looped recording of a recent argument at a meeting of Plumbers Union Regional 4500.
