Pancake Breakfast

A big THANK YOU to the 40 Scouts and 30 parents who made our annual Pancake Breakfast on March 16th a big success with a profit of $1,326. It was a fun morning for all who worked and the food was enjoyed by all who came to eat breakfast. This is a fund-raising event but also a chance for the Troop to show our appreciate to the Wayzata Community Church congregation and staff for their support. Thank you also to the scouts who made flyers and requested and received donations. This was done to fulfill one of the Communications Badge requirements.
