Fair Lawn Rotary to Host Pancake Breakfast & Food Drive

On Sunday October 13, 2013 The Rotary Club of Fair Lawn will be hosting its annual Pancake Breakfast from 8:00 AM to 12 Noon.  This year’s fundraiser will be held at the American Legion Hall located at 17-08 River Road.  Tickets are $7.00/person and include pancakes, sausages, coffee and juice.

A portion of the proceeds from this event will benefit the Fair Lawn ADA Advisory Committee.   The Fair Lawn ADA Advisory Committee is in the middle of a fundraising campaign for an inclusionary playground to be constructed at Berdan Grove.

Fair Lawn Rotarians are also asking attendees to bring an item for the Fair Lawn Food Pantry.  The Food Pantry is seeking canned fruits and meal items, crackers, pb&j, coffee, rice and other food staples as well as personal hygiene items, and paper goods to assist those in our community.  The Food pantry asks that donations are in smaller boxes and cans as these items go further than large items; furthermore, please check expiration dates.
