A tradition since 1951, Bloomington Kiwanis hosts Day of Pancakes, annually serving pancakes and sausage to over 3,000 people. Day of Pancakes is held at the BCPA (Bloomington Center for the Performing Arts) in the lower level ballroom. Pancakes are prepared by Kiwanis members and community organizations on specially crafted griddles insuring fresh, steaming hot buttermilk pancakes, served with sausage, coffee, orange juice and milk.
The 2023 Day of Pancakes will be Saturday, February 25, 7:30am to 12:30pm. Tickets are available at the link below or at the door. Adults $8.00 in advance, $10.00 at the door, and children age 0-11 are free. To purchase tickets in advance, contact any Bloomington Kiwanis member or contact the Illinois-Eastern Iowa District of Kiwanis International at 309-378-0222.
Proceeds from the Bloomington Kiwanis Day of Pancakes go toward the club’s signature project of sending local deserving children to Camp Limberlost, as well as other programs benefitting local kids such as The Harmony Park Project, Boys & Girls Club of Bloomington-Normal, W. D. Boyce Council, BSA, The Salvation Army Bloomington IL, Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals, local Aktion Clubs, local Key Clubs and local Circle K Clubs.
