Pancakes & Plaid

It was a sea of plaid from the kitchen helpers to the over 140 attendees at our Pancakes & Plaid Fundraiser for Camp Scugog on Shrove Tuesday this week.  Our special guests included Councillor Jon Burnside and our Member of Parliament Rob Oliphant. Both caught up with neighbours and got their fill of pancakes before #Lent.

Guest Speaker Emily Clark, the Development Coordinator at Camp Scugog and other staff members were on hand to answer any questions about the programs being offered at the Port Perry camp.  A special thank you to Bill Kinnear for sponsoring a special Adult Camp opportunity at Camp Scugog this summer through the Give & Go program.

Over 500 pancakes were consumed in the course of an hour.  We enjoyed litres of REAL maple syrup tapped in Ontario by Larry Allcorn and Graham Lute aka ‘Mosher Maple’.

Many thanks to all the volunteers who made this wonderful supper possible and all the guests who raised $1,230 for Camp Scugog!
