2011 Pancake Breakfast Raises over $7,000 for HGNA Programs

Thank you to all of you who volunteered, invited your friends and came out to eat pancakes at our October 2011 HGNA Pancake Breakfast! The weather was beautiful and over 450 people stepped inside for pancakes, sausage and Caribou Coffee. We flipped over 1500 pancakes, sold over $4,000 in raffle tickets and raised $7,106 to help provide programs to adolescent girls and their parents!

A special thanks to Damienne Souter and the over 30 volunteers who helped flip pancakes, pour coffee and sell raffle tickets and to our generous sponsors and contributors for their continued support.

This event has become a tradition and a wonderful way to share our mission with the community -- thank you again to all of you who helped make this possible.
