Fort Collins' B.Y.O.B. event brings ice cream, crafts and mascot fun to Mountain Avenue
Two Fort Collins businesses are teaming up again for a fun-filled day of treats and activities. Walrus Ice Cream and Otter Shop will host their 2nd Annual B.Y.O.B. – Bring Your OtterBox – event on Sunday, February 15. The celebration runs from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m., offering discounts, crafts, and a chance to meet costumed mascots along Mountain Avenue.
The event centres around a special deal for ice cream lovers. Guests who bring an OtterBox tumbler can get it filled with four scoops of house-made ice cream for just $10 at Walrus Ice Cream. Vegan options are available, though toppings are not part of the promotion.
Activities will take place at both locations. The Otter Shop will feature a photo booth, while Walrus Ice Cream hosts arts-and-crafts sessions. Between 2 and 5 p.m., Ollie the Otter and Wally the Walrus will wander along Mountain Avenue, greeting visitors and posing for photos.
Organisers hope to showcase the benefits of local collaboration. They encourage attendees to follow @ottershop and @walrusicecream on Instagram for live updates and event details.
The B.Y.O.B. event highlights how small businesses in Fort Collins work together to create unique experiences. With discounted ice cream, crafts, and mascot appearances, the day offers something for everyone. The partnership between Walrus Ice Cream and Otter Shop continues to bring the community together through creative initiatives.
