Flipping flapjacks in Lakeville

LAKEVILLE — After a nine-year layoff, the Salisbury Volunteer Ambulance Service revived its pancake breakfast fundraiser March 22 at the Town Grove.

Grove manager Stacey Dodge said it was town Recreation Director Lisa McAuliffe’s idea to bring back the breakfast and hold it at the Grove instead of the ambulance building on Undermountain Road in Salisbury.

“It’s got the room, it’s got the view,” said McAuliffe.

The last pancake breakfast was held in 2016. The 2025 revival was popular. At 9 a.m., there were about 20 people eating and as soon as someone left, someone else arrived.

McAuliffe said the flow had been steady since the start at 7:30 a.m.
