Boundary School Pancake Breakfast

BACK to school has never tasted so good. North Vancouver's Boundary Community School hosted a pancake breakfast on Saturday, September 16 to welcome everyone back to class. The Mount Seymour Lions were on hand to man the griddle and parents didn't mind pitching in to pour the syrup. There was also a raffle and prizes for the kids, and everyone wanted to get a mystery jar filled with surprises. It was a great way to kick-off the school year.


Nine-year-old Shannon Toop went home happy with her balloon and her mystery jar of goodies.	"Pancakes rock" said ten-year-old Paige Houlden (left) as she posed for a photo with nine-year-old Dylan Hendricks (centre) and eleven-year-old Colin Toop.	Tom Blockberger and his son Matthew were happy to help set-up and clean-up after the feast.	The lucky prize raffle tickets were drawn from the box by Boundary school student Lee Blockberger.	Rick Mearns is a balloon artist extraordinaire. All the kids loved him, especially when he made his special masterpiece, a "Hardley Davidson" motorcycle.

In charge of the chow line was parent volunteers Siobhan Posnikoff (from left), even coordinator Lori Blockberger and volunteer Denise Fergusson.	BIG I wonder what's inside those mystery jars? All the suspense kept these gal guessing. From left: Ida Ostovari, Daniela Bobadilla and Teava Ostovari.	Sticky fingers were all part of the job for Donna Toop (left) and Olga Marks. They served up pancakes and smiles to hungry participants.	Chris Souza (left) and Mount Seymour Lions member Alex Webster were up to their elbows in batter as they prepared in excess of 1000 pancakes.	Cathy Sleiman was busy selling raffle tickets for her toy moose. But ten-year old Mitchell Pearson was hoping to win the fleece jacket vest.

Parent Gail Donohue and school principal Joe Tibble welcomed everyone back to school in style.
