Sizzle, flip, flapjack: The University Kiwanis pancake fest is coming up
The University Kiwanis 68th Annual Pancake Festival will bring the usual delightful suspects — pancakes browning on the griddle and sausage sizzling — to Wichita Falls from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. Jan. 27 at the J.S. Bridwell Agricultural Center.
Tickets are on sale for the fundraiser hosted by the nonprofit University Kiwanis Club, according to the club's website. The event offers 12 hours of all-you-can-eat pancakes and sausage at the ag center at 111 N. Burnett.
Tickets are $11 in advance and $12 at the door. They are on sale at all United Supermarkets in Wichita Falls, Burkburnett and Iowa Park. Vendor booth rentals are also available.
Tickets and boxes of sausage can also be purchased online. Online purchases will close Jan. 25. Four Stars Auto Ranch is the premier sponsor this year.
For many in North Texas, it's a tradition to feast on pancakes to help the University Kiwanis Club help build a better community, one child at a time.
