Cones Ice Cream Open for the Season

by Shanine Sealey

Cones Ice Cream in Martensville opened on May 10th, and are ready to serve the community for their fourth year of business.


Operating out of Kinsmen Park, owners Carson Heuchert, Wyatt Strueby and Alex Garchinski began this venture while still in high school. Now in their third year of university and planning for their future careers, the trio is still dedicated to providing to the community, and have brought in extra hands to help provide the same great customer service.


“Cones is something that the three of us all want to always be a part of Martensville, so we plan to keep it running for years to come. This likely means that you may see some newer faces have larger roles in the future of Cones, but our goal is to continue on even if one day the three of us aren’t a part of it anymore, Heuchert stated.


Garchinski also added, “We want to be able to come back to Cones in years from now and be proud of what we started and see how far our little dream that started in my garage one night in grade 11 got us.”


Over the years, all three owners have learned some valuable lessons while operating a business at such a young age, which vary from learning to work together as a team more efficiently, the proof that hard work and dedication really does pay off, the responsibility that comes with all aspects of running your own business, customer service skills and so much more.


Along with those lessons also comes a lot of joy, and all three owners noted that working together as friends adds an extra layer of enjoyment. Additionally, the opportunity to be a part of the community that they grew up in is one of their favorite parts of business.


“The community is a huge part of what keeps Cones running from year-to-year and the amount of support that we get from everyone in Martensville is always extremely appreciated by us,” Strueby said.


This season, there will be a variety of over 20 ice cream flavours available, which include dairy free, gluten free, soy free, egg free and vegan options as well as some new options for customers this season.


“We have lots of new flavours that people have been loving, such as Banana Split, and Triple Fudge Brownie. Additionally, we have begun selling cotton candy in containers, and we are looking to bring in homemade lemonade in June. We think we have a good balance between new things people can get excited about and the classics that you’ve known to love over the years,” Alex Garchinksi explained.


Cones will be open every day this summer and operate from 1pm-9pm on weekends and 3pm-9pm on weekdays. Watch for updates and events such as a Community Appreciation Day and more on the ‘Cones Icecream’ Facebook and Instagram pages.


“We are excited for another great year with lots of great times and are equally as excited to see where Cones goes from here. Thank you to everyone who has helped make this possible for us. We sincerely appreciate it,” Heuchert added.
