4 years of serving Schuylkill County.
Robert and Anna Marie Decusky had a dream. The couple wanted
to make an establishment with affordable food and ice cream, where family and
friends could gather without breaking the bank.
Owners of Marko Radiator in Shenandoah and preparing for
retirement, the Decusky family went to work and on September 24, 2014, Chill
Out Ice Cream Parlor and Snack Shop, opened their doors.
Since then, Chill Out, as the locals call it, has served
customers from all over the county. Many customers enjoy the now famous “Pot
Hole Sundae”. Some walk through the door to take on the “Chill Out Super Sundae
Contest” which is 9 scoops of ice cream to be eaten in a small-time frame and
the winner gets their name on the wall, a free t-shirt, along with bragging
rights. Most customers walk through the door though for the friendly staff, fun atmosphere and the many delicious ice cream flavors.
Anna Marie is very thankful for their staff. “Our staff is
phenomenal! Well-rounded and extremely professional.” The Decusky’s treat their
staff like family and enjoy outings with them, when time allows.
Robert and Anna Marie are believers of serving the
community. For Mother’s and Father’s Day, moms and dads are treated to a free
sundae. First responders receive a free sundae on September 11th,
for their dedication and they never forget about hardworking teachers, who
receive their treat the week before local schools start.
Chill Out is now a staple in the county and is looking
forward to serving more next spring. Their last day of the season is Sunday October 7th.
“We believe if you are good to people, people are good to
you.”
