Our Saint Angela Merici Council 5210 was re-established a few years ago, and since our Knights of Columbus organization has always been about helping others, we introduced our Pancake Breakfasts to raise funds to assist in improving our Parish and Community.

Our Knights started by offering very good breakfasts that would compete with all other Knights of Columbus Councils Breakfasts, but we were not satisfied by offering “standard breakfasts”; so we improved it:

· Pancakes (Krusteaz pancake mix, plus…)

· Scrambled eggs (made with whipping cream and cooked in a wok)

· Sausage & Bacon (baked in the oven)

· Coffee, Orange Juice, Syrup, Real Butter …

Since we are always attentive to the requests from our parish customers, we have added many more items to improve our breakfasts:

· Sugar-free Syrup.

· Hot Chocolate

· Tea

· Real cream for our coffee instead of powder creamer.

· Salsa 

· NOW– 50/50 Raffle to provide more assistance for our Parish Community.
And we added a Second Place Prize – FREE “Family Ticket” for your next Breakfast.

· (And the list continues to grow)
