UConn Dairy Bar is celebrating the 125th Anniversary of the UConn Fire Department by temporarily renaming their Oreo ice cream to Freckles in honor of the beloved former firehouse mascot! From 1973-1983, Freckles, the Dalmatian, accompanied fire department personnel on routine calls and public education details. Her love and energy for the students, staff, faculty, and visitors who crossed her path brightened everyone’s day!
