St. Helen of the Cross

Our first ever attempt to host “Shrove Pancake Tuesday” was very successful with 18 volunteers consisting of brother Knights, Ladies from the CWL, friends, spouses and the assistance of several grade 8 students, made this all possible. The entire school enjoyed the golden delicious pancakes slathered in syrup. Principal Mr. David Forte was extremely pleased with our service and quality of food. Weather was chilly and sunny, we successfully managed to reduced our carbon footprint by recycling 95% of product used. With over 800 pancakes to cook, we utilized 4 flat griddles and our summer BBQ with steel flat plates we had fabricated. This greatly facilitated our efforts in serving the students and staff with the short period of time in which they had to eat. Thank you everyone for making this a memorable day for St. Helen of the Cross Council 15999, especially the batter team (Teresa Puglia, Joyce Fabbro & Karen Twardawk). Special thanks to Brother’s George Savage and Al Rizzuto for coordinating this event.
