Lions Club Semi-Annual Pancake Breakfast Supports Veterans Wall

Hundreds of community members gathered Sunday, Oct. 26 at the Lions Club Community Center on Barton Road for a home-cooked pancake breakfast. The Grand Terrace Lions Club served almost 300 pancake breakfasts including juice, coffee and fruit with all proceeds benefitting the Veteran’s Wall of Freedom. The pancake breakfast is held semi-annually, once each year in April and then again in either September or October, explained Grand Terrace Lion Penny Radtke. The breakfast event has run for about 20 years, and in the last year the Lions Club has worked with several community organizations and programs, using the pancake breakfast to help support other local programs and organizations from throughout the community. Last October, the Lions worked with the Terrace Hills Middle School to support young musicians and raise money for the school’s band program. Members of the Grand Terrace Lions Club, Leo Club and Boy Scout Troop 40 helped prepare and cook the breakfast, as well as set up before the event and clean up after the event, shared Radtke. She explained she feels that Grand Terrace is very receptive to the breakfast event because it furthers the desire to support local organizations. “The community comes together to support us. They know the good work the Lions do in the community, but parents also like to support the children, and they did that,” said Radtke. The breakfast ran for about four hours on Sunday morning.
