Hundreds of islanders and visitors stopped in to enjoy breakfast. MIFRF holds a pancake breakfast twice per year, in April and November. “Many come straight from church, and it is a chance for members of the community to get together in a casual atmosphere and socialize.

Chief Murphy thanked everyone for making the day a success, saying, “It was a great day and a wonderful community event.”
