The exact numbers have yet to be calculated, but the Sheridan Lions Club concluded this year’s annual Mark Sims Memorial Pancake Breakfast was a success. No exact head count was kept as only free will donations were accepted, but from 7 to 10 a.m. last Saturday, the line of people on hand for scrambled eggs, biscuits and gravy, and, of course, pancakes, was steady. The breakfast was held for the first time in the Sheridan High School cafeteria, and the local Lions praised the assistance of Kim Phillips, who was instrumental in keeping things running smoothly. In other Lions news, the local service organization voted to change its scholarship program and this year will offer two $1,000 scholarships to a couple of Sheridan’s graduating seniors bound for either college or trade school. The Sheridan Lions are always on the lookout for new members.
