Sadly, it does appear as though after more than a decade in business serving up milkshakes, cones, and sundaes to the community, there is one Jersey Shore ice cream spot that will not be making it through the summer.

In a recent post to social media, we learned that the Ice Cream Shop of Manahawkin will be closing its doors after 11  years in business.
