The city of Burden was host to a sight unseen by most of Generation Z as Kansas PRIDE-Burden, at the request of Walter Mello (10 y/o), created an ice cream "Truck". The setup was just a simple UTV pulling a flat bed trailer with a deep freezer packed with 135 frozen treats. "While it's not the ice cream truck Walter may have had in mind when he made the request, it still brought joy to the kids eating the frozen treats, the Kansas PRIDE-Burden volunteers who sold the treats and even the parents who paid for them" said Kansas PRIDE - Burden president William Abernathy. The group spent just over two hours selling frozen treats starting their route at 6:30pm on the east side of Burden and snaking their way back to the west side of town selling most of their inventory. "At 25 cents apiece, this was not about raising funds for our organization, but to take a young man's request and make it work" stated William Abernathy.
