Friends Host Successful Pancake Breakfast

We did it again!

The Friends of Murphys Point kicked it up a notch and hosted a larger-scale pancake breakfast (larger than usual!) as part of the annual bird count this year. The event, held on Sunday, May 22, attracted between 150 and 175 campers, birders, Friends and regular hungry people for delicious pancakes and sausages.

Thanks to everyone who came out and support this fundraiser to support Friends’ programs. Also thanks to the army of volunteers for pulling everything together (it was great fun!), and the park staff for their ongoing support.

Watch for similar events over the coming months – we’ve got a taste for it (and pancakes!) now!
