Don't forget Sertoma Pancake Day tomorrow! This is a great fundraiser for the community. Glenn (former owner) built all the grills many, many years ago and they are dug out annually to be fired up for one long day! We lost Glenn sadly a few weeks ago. This club and especially this fundraiser one was of Glenn's passions. Please be sure to support this wonderful fundraiser and enjoy all the pancakes you can eat!
