On Wednesday May 2, Baskin-Robbins ice cream stores partnered up with the El Paso Fire Department and the National Fallen Firefighters Foundation, the organization that honors America's fallen fire heroes and their families, and kicked off the summer season early with a special 31-Cent Scoop Night celebration. Ice cream lovers went to their local Baskin-Robbins stores and enjoyed their favorite ice cream flavor for only 31 cents while paying tribute to El Paso's Bravest. El Paso Firefighters visited the following locations to meet and greet the public:
- 5640 Montana

- 10790 Pebble Hills
- 3434 N. Mesa
- 5610 N. Desert Blvd. (at Redd Rd.)

The above Baskin Robbins stores sold a total of 12,720 scoops for 31 cents from 5-10pm.
12,720 scoops equal about 330 gallons of ice cream. The store at 5640 Montana sold the most scoops that night. They sold about 2,431 scoops.
Baskin-Robbins representatives recently presented a check for $1000 dollars to the El Paso Association of Firefighters Local 51.
