Rotary Club of Canton Raises over $1,200

The club recently held its first ever Pancakes with Santa fundraiser.

The Rotary Club of Canton recently presented the proceeds from its first-ever Pancakes with Santa breakfast, which raised $1,244 for local food pantries. 

The inaugural event was held on Saturday Dec. 1 at Cherokee County Fire and Emergency Services' BridgeMill Fire Station. 

The crowd enjoyed pancakes and bacon cooked up by Rotarians and visited with Santa and Mrs. Claus, thanks to Cherokee Fire's own Tim Cavender and his wife, Pam, who generously donated their time.
