After 40 years, Farrell's is returning to the City of Trees and by all the excited buzz I've heard, Sacramentans are pretty dang excited. The old-timey ice cream parlour/restaurant chain is set to open up shop on August 8th at 1625 Watt Avenue; however you can experience the magic early by participating in one of their Sneak Preview VIP days scheduled for August 5th and August 7th.  All proceeds from the Sneak Preview days will go to benefit the Firefighters Burn Institute, Shriners Hospitals for Children, and UC Davis. It's for a good cause, so come for the frosty treats and stay for the upbeat songs, lively dancing and some 1890's fun.
