Annual Ice Cream Social
Join us at Shafor Park for Oakwood’s annual Ice Cream Social — a family tradition to celebrate the end of summer. Enjoy music from a DJ and the Oakwood High School Marching Band, games and prizes for all ages, the Avenue of Organizations, Food Trucks, and of course... ice cream! Rain or shine.
This year’s event is a low-waste event, thanks to our partnership with Green Oakwood, Waste-Free Dayton, and City of Dayton’s “Take Back the Tap” water trailer. Bring your own water bottles to fill!
