Overwhelming turnout for pancake breakfast at Southland Trailers

The Whoop Up Days celebration isn’t limited to just the exhibition grounds, Southland Trailers in partnership with the Calgary Stampede once again hosted their hugely popular annual pancake breakfast.

Vehicles lined the streets for blocks, even on 43rd street as people packed the yard Thursday morning for a hearty breakfast of pancakes and sausages alongside other fun activities including live music, a kids fun zone, raffle tickets and pet-friendly horses.

Southland Trailers says the event has become so popular each year that they are looking for ways to mend the record traffic for future events.

Donations towards the event went towards supporting the Lethbridge Therapeutic Riding Association.
