Description

Now that it's warm out, the Mr. Ding-a-ling ice cream trucks are back and they are louder than ever. Lately a truck is parking near the playground in Washington Park for 30-60 minutes or more at a time. The music is so loud it can be heard on the Madison Ave side of the park. It plays constantly. Everyone in the park and along State Street and the cross streets can hear it. Turkey in the Straw and She'll Be Comin' Round the Mountain over and over and over again. It's like torture. Can they turn it down? Or go back to occasionally ringing a bell?
