KIWANIS PANCAKE AND AUCTION DAY
Saturday, May 6 from 7am to 1pm
Join us for Roanoke’s largest breakfast and it all goes to supporting Roanoke charities!
Come in person on Saturday, May 6 at the Berglund Center anytime between 7:00 am and 1:00 pm for an all-you-can-eat pancake breakfast and yard sale. Individual tickets for breakfast are $7.00 when purchased in advance and $10.00 when purchased on-site; children 5 years of age and under are free. Breakfast includes pancakes, sausages, syrup and toppings, cold and hot drinks.
We are holding the event in person at the Berglund Center in partnership with the Spring Craft and Vendor Show. Thousands will be able to enjoy an all-you-can-eat pancake breakfast and shop all the vendors at the Craft Show.
For 25+ years, our Club has conducted an annual event to raise money by selling pancake breakfasts, conducting an auction, and conducting a yard sale. Each year, thousands of tickets are bought and thousands of pancakes served, hundreds of hours of Club member efforts are volunteered, countless items are sold, and tens of thousands of dollars are raised. We use the proceeds for grants to dozens of local non-profit and charitable organizations focused on children, the elderly, and the environment.

Step beyond the jump-scare and into the real world of Death Investigation. Join Crime Scene Investigator Rebekah Hollingsworth as she guides you through what really happens when a life ends unexpectedly; you’ll discover how investigators read a scene, interpret the body, and separate fact from Hollywood fiction.

Whether you’re a writer, a horror fan, or just fascinated by the macabre side of science, you’ll leave with a deeper appreciation for the stories the dead can tell, if you know how to listen.
