Ice Cream Social for Diabetics


Cathy Kightlinger will do anything to get the scoop on the social scene in Indy. As the Indianapolis Star's TOOT (Talk Of Our Town) Girl, the stylish Kightlinger is expected to hang with Hoosierland's elite at every charitable ball, fashion benefit, bakeoff and black-tie chicken situation the Circle City dishes out. 
This week, the effervescently blonde reporter could be found cheerfully manning booth #4 at the Annual Ice Cream Social on the Circle.  Ice cream to benefit diabetes? Strange but true.
"I scream, you scream...We all scream: I'll be scooping from 12:30 to 1 pm tomorrow" Kightlinger posted on her Facebook wall, and tweeted to her ever-growing list of followers on Twitter. Without the slightest bit of irony, the twittering TOOT columnist went on to inform us that this year's ice cream event was being sponsored by the American Dairy Association of Indiana -- all to benefit the Diabetes Youth Foundation of Indiana.
Sweet Sponsorship? When Indy Social pointed out the rough associative fit, it resulted in the following FB Wall back and forth:

  1. Thanks for being a part of it and getting the word out, Cathy, and hope your first scooping-in-public experience was a great one! It was a great event benefiting the DYFI, and so awesome to have so many "celebrity" scoopers like yourself helping out. Being a Type 1 myself, I particularly had a blast enjoying my sundae with sugar-free chocolate syrup. Can't wait to read more of your coverage on the ice cream social!
