Pancake
Eating Contest
Pancakes and fresh maple
syrup is the best springtime remedy for "cabin fever."
Marathon, NY will
have no shortage of either.
THE TWO-DAY
WEEKEND EVENT SLATED FOR SATURDAY,
APRIL 5
AND SUNDAY,
April 6 IS A CELEBRATION OF SPRING AND THE SUGARING TIMES.
The
12th Annual Pancake Contest will kick-off the weekend's activities
at 9a.m. sharp on Saturday in the High School Auditorium.
This 15-minute contest will show visitors some techniques
involved in becoming a connoisseur of the beloved "pancakes and
maple syrup".
This year the contestants will eat for non-profit organizations.
Pledges have been solicited per pancake by these organizations.
The Maple Festival committee has pledged $2 a pancake eaten.
"This is just a celebration of spring, maple syrup, and the
family".
We invite everyone to join us as we kick off the festival with
a good old-fashioned contest.
