The community turned out in big numbers Saturday for the annual Taylorville Kiwanis Club Pancake and Sausage Breakfast at the Moose Lodge.

Kiwanis members organized and cooked the delicious pancakes and sausage for those who turned out.  

Several members of the Taylorville High School Kiwanis Key Club and Junior High Builders Club, helped Kiwanis members serve the food.

Net proceeds from the day’s event go towards Kiwanis efforts for children and youth in the Taylorville community, including Coats for Kids, Kiwanis Park, scholarships for the YMCA and high school seniors, and also funds other local non-profit organizations benefiting children in the Taylorville community.

The annual event is one of several fund-raisers the Kiwanis Club does each year to raise funds for its local efforts.

The Taylorville Kiwanis Club is part of a global organization of volunteers dedicated to improving the world one child and one community at a time.  Weekly meetings are held Tuesdays at noon at the Taylorville Moose Lodge.  For information on the club, go to taylorvillekiwanis.com.
