Fat Tuesday pancake supper, polka band slated at churches
Two Northport churches will host events celebrating Fat Tuesday.
From 5 to 7 p.m. Tuesday, Bethany Lutheran will host its traditional Shrove Tuesday Pancake Supper. Flapjacks, sausage, Northport maple syrup and homemade apple sauce will be served. Proceeds from any freewill offerings given at the dinner will be matched by the local Thrivent society and sent to the Leelanau Christian Neighbors food pantry.
Following the supper the Northport Trinity Church UCC will host a seven-piece polka band playing authentic German and Austrian music from 7 to 8:30 p.m. in the church’s Fellowship Hall. Dancing is encouraged and paczkis will be served. The events are open to the public.
