On Saturday Jan. 16, the All Knighter committee will be hosting their second annual character breakfast in the commons to help fundraise for the upcoming All Knighter in June. Kids from all ages are admitted to attend at admission price of ten dollars per person. They are welcomed to have breakfast with Elsa and Anna from Frozen, Batman and Spiderman.

“I’m looking forward to seeing the children’s faces when they see their favorite princesses or superheroes,” All Knighter volunteer Angie Roloff said. “They just have so much light in their eyes when they see the characters.”

The festivities will start at 9 a.m. and last approximately an hour. Chris’ Cakes will be providing pancakes, sausage and juice including a pancake machine that gives the kids a carnival type atmosphere. Elsa, Anna, Spiderman and Batman will be there will engage with the kids through the entire hour event. They walk around and talk to them while staying in character the whole time. The princesses will be putting on a ten to fifteen minute song presentation from the movie. Attendees are welcome to a free face painting and a photo op with their favorite characters for five dollars each. There will also be five boy and girl raffle baskets the attendees can enter their names in to win.

“This year we are having the Batman and Spiderman for the boys,” All Knighter chairman Mary Porter said. “Last year they only did the Frozen theme and we changed it a little be this year because thought it was important to include a male focus instead of just girls. By having the boys included, we hope that draws a little bit more in attendance.”

Since this is the second year doing the breakfast, last year had a large effect on it. This year’s All Knighter committee was told last year that it was such a big hit and a good fundraising opportunity for the All Knighter, that they decided to continue the event. They hope this year is just as successful.

“It’s a good experience for the kids to be able to meet those characters because a lot of children look up to them,” junior Sami Weyhrich said.
