Dairy Queen is once again marking the season change with its fourth annual Free Cone Day. Participating Dairy Queen locations will offer customers a free small vanilla soft-serve cone, while supplies last.

In addition to free ice cream, Dairy Queen locations will be collecting donations for the Children's Miracle Network Hospitals. Last year, Dairy Queen raised more than $300,000 in a single day, according to a company news release.
