OBX Bike Week-Part 2--Support Good Causes

Two good causes for visitors at OBX Bike Week to help with. On Saturday morning, April 24 the Manteo Masonic Lodge on Hwy 64/264 (the main drag in Manteo) is having a pancake breakfast to raise money for our two charities; the Masonic Home for Children in Oxford, NC, and the Whitestone (Eastern Star/Masonic) Eldercare/Retirement Center in Greensboro, NC.
$5 gets you pancakes, sausage, fruit and juice. All proceeds go to the charity. Bikers welcomed, encouraged and begged to come. Hooter's is competing with us this year with their own pancake breakfast, so it may be a tough year. Take the old way through Manteo if you are on your way to Vertigo's rather than taking the new bridge. Times are 7-10AM.

EVERY day, the Dare County Shrine Club's Beach Bum unit is cooking up BBQ (we smoke the butts ourselves over a slow cooker--this ain't store bought BBQ), eastern NC style; grilled chicken breasts and Italian sausage subs. All sandwiches $4; proceeds to the Unit which in turn raises money and provides PR for the Shrine Children's Hospitals--we operate over 20 of these facilities for both burn and birth defect victims and no patients pay a penny--even if they have insurance. The Shriner tent is at the Vertigo stop on the Bike Week tour in Manns Harbor.

Help out and have some fgu
