We just finished the final cleanup after our second football breakfast of the season. In case you didn't know, Lakeside prepares a hot breakfast of scrambled eggs, bacon, biscuits and gravy for the Putnam North football team on days that they play games at PC stadium. We arrive at 5:30am and scramble 16 dozen eggs, cook 21 pounds of bacon, bake 15 dozen biscuits and prepare 2 gallons of gravy. The team will usually drink 4-5 gallons of orange juice and a couple gallons of milk. They arrive at 7:30 and hang around until about 8:30. Some 75-80 players, coaches and managers come and eat breakfast in our family life center.
This is the fourth year we have done this. The first year, Sam Bradford (yes, that Sam Bradford) was the quarterback for PC North and ate game day breakfasts in our FLC. It most likely contributed to his success later in life.
This is a great time of connection with some of the students and coaches of one of the two schools in our square mile. If you would like to be involved in this, see Pastor Trent. We could use the help, and you will enjoy it.
