Yes, again we will be firing up the big griddle, toiling before the flames to summon an army of pancakes, which no single fork can conquer! Yes! Again we will momentarily forget about spinning bike wheels, only to have visions of spinning pancakes tormenting our feverish and fitful dreams! YES….

Yes, we shall be having our Fourth Annual Pancake Breakfast Fundraiser on Saturday, August 18th, 9 am – 12 pm at Santiago Park in Santa Ana (near the Discovery Science Center and Santa Ana Mother’s Market). Bring the whole family for good eating, games, a raffle, and a silent auction, all benefiting The Bicycle Tree.

Our all-you-can-eat menu will feature pancakes (regular and blueberry) with real maple syrup, fruit, juice, coffee, and more. Our entire delicious buffet will be vegan. We will offer gluten-free pancakes as an option as well.

$10 for adults, $5 for youth 12 and under.

We’ll be raffling off a 2012 dark red Fit Eddie 1 BMX bicycle – raffle tickets are $5 each or $12 for three.
