The grills are getting ready to be fired up as Kiwanians are preparing for their 60th Annual Pancake Supper on Election Day, November 6th from 4:30 to 7:30 at the Brownwood Coliseum.

Local plumber Ed McMillian and his crew were working hard Friday to make sure the many gas griddles are hooked up safely to ensure that thousands of pancakes can be cooked by the Kiwanians on Election Day.  McMillian and his son Wes McMillian are pictured working on the gas lines to the griddles on Friday afternoon.

Organizers are making preparations from gathering supplies to finding just the right silly hat to wear for tradition’s sake.

Tickets are on sale now, $6 each, and available from any Kiwanis Club member as well as the Brownwood Area Chamber of Commerce office.

Organizers for the event said that televisions will be set up at the coliseum so attendees can watch early election returns.

The Kiwanis Club’s mission is to help youth in Brown County, and every year about $16,000 is raised through the pancake supper alone to benefit approximately 16 youth organizations.
