On Sunday 22-March Bogota Beautiful held their first ever Pancake breakfast in the lower hall of the Bogota VFW #5561 post. This was to raise fund for their spring planting on Saturday 2- May. Councilman Rob Robbins handle the griddle duties, while other members of Bogota Beautiful made sure that the trays were filled with food, and the coffee hot. A number of Families took advantage of their Family pricing of $25 for a family of four. Mayor Chris Keleman and other members of Borough Council were on hand to to have breakfast.
The process from this event will go to the purchasing of material for the Bogota Beautiful planters on W.Main St. They are looking to acquire dwarf evergreen trees to act as a centerpiece of the planters year round. Fresh soil and new flowering plants will also be added to the planters. The VFW waved their fee for the use of the lower hall in, exchange Bogota Beautiful will also added planters, and do other beautification to the entrances of the Post #5561 hall.
