More than 2,000 guests are expected, including participants from Oregon, Washington, Idaho, California, Nevada, Hawaii, Canada and beyond. The event is free to the public, with tickets to the Special Recipe Pancake Breakfast (beginning at 7:30am) available: $6 for adults, $4 for kids ages 6–10 and free for children five and under.
A benefit for New Generations, the event is expected to raise thousands of dollars for the Sunriver child care center, which provides grants and support for area low-income families.
