Hundreds of people gathered in downtown Springfield for the annual World’s Largest Pancake Breakfast. Western Mass News reporter Glenn Kittle was there to see how attendees were enjoying the flapjack fiesta. With over 500 gallons of pancake mix, hundreds of pounds of bacon, and a sea of people, the breakfast was a huge success.
Families were seen indulging in pancakes, waffles, and bacon in the middle of the street, a unique experience for many. Brendaliz Adorno, a Springfield resident who attended with her family, mentioned that such events are not common in Puerto Rico. The community came together to enjoy the delicious food and each other’s company.
Volunteers worked tirelessly behind the scenes to ensure that everyone had a great time. David Garvey, a member of Springfield UNICO, spoke about their mission to serve others through this event. The President of the Spirit of Springfield, Judy Matt, assured that any leftover food would be donated to shelters in need.
The World’s Largest Pancake Breakfast has become a tradition for many families who come back year after year to bond with loved ones and enjoy a fun-filled morning in downtown Springfield. The event brings the community together and provides an opportunity to give back to those less fortunate while creating lasting memories for all involved.
