Join our Gilliam Place community as we take the local bus to Jake’s Ice Cream for sweet summer treats. Jake’s Ice Cream is an artisanal shop that proudly employs many adults with disabilities, including some of our very own OSG friends!
Meet up: If you’d like to ride the bus with our group, please meet us at Gilliam Place (918 S Lincoln St, Arlington, VA 22204) by 1pm so that we’re sure to catch the bus on time! We won’t be able to wait for anyone who is late. If you have your own transportation and want to meet us directly at Jake’s Ice Cream, then plan to arrive at the shop around 1:45pm.
To prepare: If you’re riding the bus, please bring at least $5 in cash or your SmarTrip card. If you qualify for the Reduced Fare program as a person with a disability or as a senior, be sure to carry a government id with you as well. Everyone planning to buy ice cream should bring their own payment method (cash, credit card, etc.).
Contact: We will communicate changes of plans via Whatsapp, so please join the OSG Events Whatsapp group to receive important event updates.
Weather Cancellation: In case of unsafe weather conditions, an announcement will be made on Whatsapp at least 2 hours prior to the start of the in-person event.
Accommodations: At OSG, our staff are not direct service providers, so we ask that each participant attending an event brings any personal support they may need for their well-being and engagement. This may include, but is not limited to, caregivers, communication partners, or mobility aids. That said, with prior notice, we can arrange group-wide accommodations during event planning. These might include ensuring wheelchair-accessible routes or selecting allergen-safe menus. Additional accommodations are available upon request, though they may not be listed here. To discuss your specific needs and help us make our events more inclusive, please contact us at claudet@ourstompingground.org with the subject line “Accommodation Request.”
*Note: Sign-up is mandatory. We will communicate any changes of plans via Whatsapp here.
