Around the Table Game Pub in Lynnwood is launching its Summer Ice Cream Contest, inviting local residents to submit inventive flavor ideas. Participants have until May 27 to enter, and Olympic Mountain Ice Cream will create flavors from the 12 most compelling submissions. Past winning flavors have included fruity and floral combinations, though participants should avoid bizarre ideas like cat food ice cream.
