Every November, the aroma of sizzling pancakes and sausage fills the air in Winchester, Virginia, signaling the arrival of the much-anticipated Winchester Kiwanis Community Pancake Day. In this episode of The Valley Today, host Janet Michael talks with Kevin Brandiff, Executive Director of Froggy's Closet, and Carleton Rio, Co-chair of the event, to explore how this beloved tradition does more than just serve breakfast—it strengthens the fabric of the community. Froggy's Closet: More Than Just Supplies Kevin passionately describes the mission of Froggy's Closet, an organization founded in 2009 to support foster families and, over time, all families in need. The nonprofit provides everything from cribs and strollers to clothing, diapers, and books, ensuring that children from birth to age 18 have what they need. As the need in the community grows, so does Froggy's reach, thanks in part to the generosity of local residents and events like Community Pancake Day. Kiwanis Club: Serving Children, Supporting Causes Carleton explains that the Kiwanis Club of Winchester has a clear objective: to support organizations that benefit children. Each year, the club selects a major beneficiary for the spring and fall Pancake Day. This fall, Froggy's Closet is the recipient. The event not only raises funds but also awareness, giving organizations like Froggy's a platform to share their story and needs with the broader community. Behind the Scenes: Organizing Pancake Day Transitioning to the logistics, both guests highlight the teamwork and dedication required to pull off such a large event. With seasoned volunteers and a well-oiled committee, the Kiwanis Club ensures that everything runs smoothly—from flipping thousands of pancakes to brewing coffee in cauldrons and serving up 2,000 pounds of sausage. The event serves as a reunion for locals, a place where old friends reconnect and new friendships are forged. Giving Back: How the Community Can Help Moreover, Pancake Day is about more than just food. Attendees are encouraged to bring donations—monetary or in-kind, such as wipes, board games, and clothing—to support Froggy's Closet. The funds raised not only benefit the main recipient but also trickle down to other local organizations, amplifying the impact across Winchester and surrounding counties. A Lasting Impact As the conversation wraps up, Janet, Kevin, and Carleton reflect on the deeper meaning of Pancake Day. It's a celebration of service, tradition, and the power of community. Whether you're a first-time attendee or a seasoned volunteer, everyone leaves with a sense of belonging and the knowledge that their participation helps children and families thrive. Winchester's Kiwanis Community Pancake Day is more than a fundraiser—it's a testament to what a caring, connected community can achieve. Through the combined efforts of dedicated volunteers, generous donors, and passionate leaders, Pancake Day continues to make a difference, one plate at a time.
