All You Can Eat Breakfast - Franklin Rod & Gun Club - Feb 16

Valentine's Day weekend is upon us and there's nothing more romantic than heading down to the Franklin Rod & Gun Club to stuff yourself silly with sausage (and eggs, home fries, pancakes, French toast, baked beans, and corned beef hash).

All You Can Eat Breakfast - Feb 16

On February 16 from 7:30-11 AM, you can get a $10 ($5 for kids 12 and under) all-you-can-eat breakfast you're guaranteed to adore.

Sure, it'll be chocolate chips in pancakes instead of Ghirardelli from the box, and you'll trade champagne in flute glasses for coffee in mugs.

But does that upscale restaurant have deer heads mounted on the wall and free Golden Tee? Didn't think so.

Eat fancy on Friday night but fall in love with breakfast at the gun club come Sunday. We'll save a heart-shaped pancake just for you!

You do you, we don't judge. 

And if there's anything left over, we donate the rest of the food to Gilly's House to help our friends in recovery. 

Good food, good prices, and good deeds. We look forward to serving you on Sunday."

Community Preservation Committee to view digitized output before funding project (video)

The Community Preservation Committee met on Tuesday, August 20, 2024 as scheduled. One item was on the agenda.

Alan Earls, Historical Commission Chair, provided an update on the funding being looked for by the Rod & Gun Club to digitize some films from the 1940's & 1950's. The Club may have already done so but any funding would help them cover the costs (approx. $3,000).

Committee expressed desire to see a sample of the output before committing to fund. Details were being arranged to do so.
