Kiwanis Pancake Festival & 5K

The festival style event will take place at Northwestern State University’s Collins Pavilion located in the heart of the tailgating area on campus.

The club is excited about putting on our annual event! The pancakes will be FREE to all guests. Yep, we said FREE PANCAKES! The Pancake Festival will also offer a wide array of events including: a pancake eating contest, pancake flipping contest and a free Kids Zone that includes **** painting and bounce houses. The breakfast itself will include delicious pancakes, sausage and your choice of beverage (milk, coffee or orange juice).

The Pancake Festival will once again have their 5k race which will be held on the campus of NSU beginning at 8am. Cost to run is $20 for children 12 and under and $25 for everyone else ($30 after April 22nd at noon until race day morning).
Day of registration will begin at 7:30am.

One hundred percent of the proceeds raised from this event will be used to support the many programs and projects in the local club including: Terrific Kids, K-Kids, Key Club, Circle-K, Boys & Girls Club water day and many others. “Our club also takes the time to honor a Lawman of the Year, Teacher of the Year, Fire Fighter of the Year and a Layperson of the Year and we could not be more proud of our hard work and support from the community,” said Lee Waskom.
