One of the highlights of this year's Strawberry Festival in Downtown Billings will feature hot competition with a cold twist.
On Saturday beginning at 2 p.m., Big Dipper Ice Cream will host its first ice cream eating contest under Sky Point, just a block away from its new shop at the corner of First and Broadway, formerly the Marcasa location...
