Exchange Club of Grayslake Annual Pancake Breakfast

The Exchange Club of Grayslake will be hosting our 38th annual Pancake Breakfast on Sunday, October 16, 2011 at the downtown Grayslake Fire Station.

The Pancake Breakfast is one of our largest and most successful fundraisers. It generates the most participation from our members, sponsors, and the community. Proceeds from this event will help support many worthwhile community programs. In the past years we have provided financial assistance to the following agencies: A Safe Place, Aid For Women,American Legion#659,sponsoring students to Boys/Girls State, CASA, Community Youth Network (CYN) Cub Scout Pack 96, Feed My Starving Children, Grayslake Fire Dept., Grayslake Police Dept. (Shop w/a Cop) Grayslake Senior Center, Grayslake Youth Center (Oasis) Lake County Child Abuse Prevention Foundation, Maristella Ministry, PADS Crisis Center, and the Special Education District of Lake County.

New this year to the event will be the first pancake eating contest between the Grayslake Police and Fire Department. Balloon and table magic, and a coloring contest for the kids.
