Pelican’s SnoBalls In Grovetown – A Great Place To Beat The Heat

Author Dub

This past weekend my family visited the Pelican’s SnoBalls location in Grovetown. It was a great way to cool down on a hot Saturday afternoon. My wife and I really enjoyed it, however, I think our daughter Maddie was the biggest fan!

Pelican’s SnoBalls Has Something For Everyone

With the heat being so bad in the CSRA right now it’s easy to just stay inside where the AC is. However, we were looking for something to do to get out of the house. I suggested that we go get snowballs. We haven’t been to Pelican’s SnoBalls in a hot minute, and their Grovetown location is right around the corner from our house. So as soon as Maddie woke up from her nap, we headed over there.

Pelican’s SnoBalls has so many different flavors, over 100 to be exact. So it was hard to figure out which ones we wanted to get. I settled on the Root Beer Float, which is root beer flavoring with creme mixed in. Kelsey and Maddie split a blue raspberry snowball, and as you can tell by this picture, Maddie really enjoyed it!

We will definitely be making more trips there this summer to give some of the other flavors a try!

There are a bunch of Pelican’s SnoBalls locations around the CSRA, so odds are there is probably a location close to you.

Speaking of summer, check out some of the best country songs of summer!

12 Of Country Music's Best Songs Of Summer

Today (6/21) marks the first day of summer, which gives us the longest daylight hours of the year and is the official start of summer. The summer solstice happens when the sun appears to be directly over the Tropic of Cancer, and for 2023, that’s 10:58 a.m. Eastern.

The longest daylight hours of the year will vary depending on how far you are from the equator. Daylight hours will gradually shorten until the winter solstice in December. The situation is reversed in the Southern Hemisphere, where winter starts in June.

Luke Bryan told us recently, before he launched his 2023 “Country On” tour for the summer, “Nothing is better than being out on the road in the summer.”

For Dierks Bentley, summer is about having fun and lighting things up a bit. A few years ago, Dierks told us before he launched a summer tour, “Fireworks were a big part of my summers growing up and explosives and putting half sticks of dynamite in mailboxes and just having fun.”

Chris Young told us a few years back that summertime is the time to work when you are a country singer, and vacations during the summer are few and far between. He said, “Everyone else is getting a chance to relax a little more, but as a musician, you’re playing somewhere, and it’s always tricky trying to work that out. Everyone is like, ‘You should come over; we’re having a barbecue,’ and I’m like, ‘I’m gonna be in the middle of the country.”

Little Big Town’s Phillip Sweet told us about his group’s summer anthem, “Pontoon,” when it first came out, “It’s just fun, it really is, it feels like summer, and it feels exactly what it sounds like. I grew up on pontoon boats in the summer on the lakes and just having a blast.”

As we bring in the official start of summer today, we look at what we believe are twelve of the best country music songs celebrating the summertime.
