What dream could be nicer that treating dad to breakfast and discovering he’s just become a millionaire.
Take your dad to a unique family affair at Sorrento hall for the annual pancake breakfast and inaugural antique appraisal hosted by the local Lions Club.
You never know just how much family “treasures” might be worth.
Successful events have been hosted in other areas, often with attendees lining up and down the block, hoping to find out if what they have always considered to be junk is really something much more.
A number of professional appraisers will be on-site, but the event is intended to be strictly for fun.
No certificates will be issued, but business cards will be made available for those would like to follow up after the event.
Participants will be charged a small appraisal fee of $3 per item, $5 for two items.
Breakfast begins at 8 a.m. and will run until mid afternoon, depending on how busy it is.
If the antique appraisal turns out to be a success, the Lions Club plans to present and expanded and improved event next year.
Each year, the pancake breakfast brings hundreds of people through their doors, looking for some freshly made pancakes and delicious sausage.
Funds raised from the breakfast will be used for a number of Lions community projects.
