RJs Steakery is new home for benefit breakfast
pilotclub l
The venue and day are new, but the cause is the same for an annual fundraising breakfast hosted this week by the Pilot Club of Statesboro.For the first time in 32 years, the club will hold its annual Nancy Yawn Benefit Breakfast on Saturday rather than Sunday, and in an establishment not named “Snooky’s.”The charity breakfast, which benefits several community programs, will be hosted Saturday, from 6 a.m. to 1 p.m. at RJ’s Steakery on South Main Street. Money raised through the all-you-can-eat, buffet-style breakfast will be used to fund Pilot Club projects that include: distributing dictionaries to Bulloch County third-grade students, organizing an educational puppet show for kindergartners, the Alzheimer’s Caring Closet, the Silver Lining Club and Project Lifesaver, which helps track down lost and wandering individuals who wear a traceable bracelet. RJ’s owner Randy Nessmith, a longtime supporter of the event, is opening his doors to host the Pilot Club’s only annual fundraiser — the affair’s longtime home, Snooky’s Restaurant, closed earlier this year.
