In honor of Prom season, High Rocks is hosting the 2nd annual Post-Prom Pancake Breakfast on May 13 in Montwell Park at The Hub.
During this event, an endless amount of blueberry, chocolate chip, and buttermilk pancakes will be served to over 50 prom attendees and volunteers. Over 15 toppings will be available to create delicious combinations, including maple bacon, salted caramel pretzel, and strawberry shortcake.
With no 24-hour restaurant in Greenbrier County, this event will give prom attendees a place to grab a bite and continue the memorable evening. The event will illustrate community support for teens to have an option for a safe place to celebrate.
The event is a way to provide a safe, alcohol free, adult supervised, hip, place to go for post prom celebration.
