Baskin-Robbins is opening a new location and giving away free ice cream for a year.

In honor of its 31 flavors brand, the shop will give the free ice cream to 31 people.

It’s all happening at the Saturday grand opening of the newest Baskin-Robbins at 8959 N. Cedar Ave., near Shepherd Avenue in the same shopping center as Vons.

The event runs from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

The first 31 people in line will get coupons that give them free 2.5- or 4-ounce scoops for a year.

Also during the event, people can get ice cream scoops for $1.31. There will also be giveaways from a prize wheel, music and a visit from mascot Coney.

The store has been open since March 14 and employs 10 people.

In addition to the new modern design of the store, it also carries more frozen treats. That includes chocolate-dipped bananas, smoothie and ice cream bars, and an expanded toppings station.

The Baskin-Robbins will be open from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. daily.
