Bishop Avery Comithier, a member of Pastors on Patrol with the Albany Police Department, has just launched a delightful new venture – an ice cream store nestled in Albany’s underserved community. This isn’t your average ice cream parlor though; it’s a hub of joy, safety, and community engagement.
Tucked away on Second Avenue, this vibrant space offers more than just a plethora of creamy treats. The store is also home to an array of arcade games, transforming it into an inviting haven for the local kids to socialize and have fun.
Bishop Comithier’s vision extends beyond mere entertainment. He aims to provide a sanctuary for kids, particularly during the scorching summer months. In his own words, “Just come have fun. They can play the arcade games. This is what it is all about — having resources instead of the street.”
The ice cream store, a beacon of positivity and community strength, will welcome visitors from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m., acting as a delightful antidote to street life and offering a safe, engaging space for the youth to enjoy.
