Disclaimer: The Club ONT ice cream machine is not currently operational. There was a horrible accident when the staff tried to mix vanilla and chocolate to make a swirl cone. The sudden and unexpected presence of strawberry created a kerfuffle of cold creamery. Fortunately, Club ONT staff is resourceful and tapped the emergency Klondike reserve. Club ONT apologizes for any inconvenience but is not responsible for ice cream headaches.
