Kiwanis Fair Pancake House leader haunted by 'Elvis'
102210 FAIR WHALEY 01
Don Whaley swaps family stories with volunteer Debra Alexander in the Kiwanis pancake kitchen Friday.
During ‘fair week,” one can always find Statesboro Kiwanis Club member Don Whaley in the club’s pancake house. He starts his job weeks before the annual Kiwanis Ogeechee Fair arrives, reminding club members to sign up to volunteer by flipping pancakes, frying sausage, mixing batter and serving the hungry public. He is there every night, making sure the crowd that flocks to the Pancake House gets their fill of fluffy golden pancakes and fresh link sausage, and works as hard as anyone.
