The time has come! We are OUT of flavors. We will be closing tonight, for the last time, at 7:30. We want to thank everyone so much for coming out today, and every summer for the last 10 years! We have had a blast serving you. Thank you for making us apart of your summer tradition and we will miss you all so much.

It’s time to pass on our Snow-Smile-Laughter-Family making supplies to a new family. With a little luck they will choose to keep it here in Shelbyville. There is so much I want to say but I think my youngest daughter said it best…..

Sad to see an era come to a close, beyond grateful for years of support from the community to our little family. I will definitely miss being able to stop by for a free shaved ice or a drink from the cooler on my way home from work ( love you Wendy and dad 😅😂) but I’m also excited for my parents to have the ability to slow down and enjoy the grandkids while they are little.
To whoever is fortunate enough to take over this place, I hope you enjoy the place and the memories with all the customers you’ll make along the way. I hope you take time to stop and get to know the little kids you’ll watch grow through the summers and sometimes not be able to recognize by the next, to see certain cars pull in and already know what flavors to pull. I hope you see the small town shine in the place that makes you remember your own childhood. Best luck in your future ice shaving adventures

To wendy and Travis west my hardworking and dedicated parents, thank you for a childhood filled with snow , I’ll never look at the yellow snow the same. I love you always, forever proud

As I type this I have big fat tears running down my cheeks but I can’t put it off any longer.

Travis and I have made the decision that this season will be our last season with the Sugar Shack. We’re watching our grandchildren grow so quickly, one is already in high school! As we’ve gotten older time and memories are becoming so much more precious to us. After a decade of making snow we are ready to start a new chapter that involves A LOT more time making memories with each of our grandchildren.
There are not adequate words to express our gratitude to each and every one of of our guests, our employees each of whom became family, and to the city of Shelbyville. You opened your hearts and welcomed us in. It was truly a pleasure getting to know you and watch so many young one’s grow up and are now bringing their babies up for the yellow snow.
It’s with grateful hearts that we ask you to stop by The Sugar Shack one more time on our last day ever which is Friday August 29th. Rain or shine we will be open from 2:00pm to 10:00pm. We would love the opportunity to thank you personally and to say goodbye.

Thank you to our Sugar Shack family!
Wendy and Travis

Unexpectedly, life happens. We will not be open today Monday the 25th. We will see you guys tomorrow.

After much deliberation, we have decided that we will be closing an hour early every day with the exception of Friday, August 29. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and hope to see you in our last week!

Sadly it’s that time of your again. Our last day of the 2025 season will be on Friday August 29th, weather permitting. So come on out and get your favorite flavors while they last! See you soon.
