Its pancake time again!
Not everyone attending the 2005 Pancake Saturday sponsored by the Kiwanis Club of Peachtree City will have to eat with their hands behind their back. That is unless you are between 6 and 16 and wish to participate in a children's pancake eating contest and don't mind getting a little syrup on your nose! The 13th Annual event is r Saturday in the McIntosh High School Cafeteria on Walt Banks Road. Serving hours are from 7 a.m. until 1 p.m. The ALL-YOU-CAN-EAT menu consists of pancakes, sausage patties, orange juice, milk, coffee, and tea. Tickets are just $4 and can be purchased from any Kiwanian or at the door. All profits are returned to the community. This is not just another pancake breakfast, but Peachtree City's premier mid-winter social event. Friends and family gather to share a meal, enjoy each others company and have a great time. Kids are entertained with free face painting and by the antics of clowns. Adults are serenaded by a strolling barbershop quartet. Plenty of free parking is available with assistance provided by members of the McIntosh and Starr's Mill High School Key Clubs. Last year the club served 10,000 pancakes to over 2800 hungry citizens. The tremendous success from this fund raiser coupled with the organization's other functions resulted in the club giving back over $35,000 to the community in support of over 40 charitable causes and service projects. The club's primary focus is aimed at improving the health and well being of children. To view photos taken at last year's event please visit the club's website at peachtreecitykiwanis.org. |
