2024 Pancake Breakfast Recap

Written By Jessica Gutowski-Slaydon

A huge thank you to everyone who attended this year’s pancake breakfast! Big shout out to Rockford Ambulance, Nelson’s Towing, and the Kent County Sheriff's Department for their active participation in making this event a success.

The Fire Department is excited to share that we set a new record this year, raising $3,689.72, all of which will benefit the Great Lakes Burn Camp and Riding for Ryan. This is a significant increase from last year’s record of $2,461, highlighting the incredible generosity of our community.

This is pretty awesome! Don’t forget to mark your calendar for next year. The pancake breakfast is always the first Saturday in October from 8 a.m. - 10 a.m. The same weekend as Pulaski Days!
