American Legion pancake feed raises $6,000 for baseball

A pancake feed Saturday to benefit American Legion baseball in Lawrence drew nearly 650 people and raised more than $6,000, said Hank Sipple, finance officer for American Legion Post 14.

He said the Legion may schedule another pancake feed to raise more funds for baseball.

“It’s lower than we planned on,” Sipple said of the amount raised by the event.

Ed Mount, post commander, said post officials would soon discuss whether to schedule another fundraiser.
