A city councillor donned purple pyjamas and the community came out in droves to grab a one-of-a-kind breakfast and support the United Way Thursday morning.
Cars lined Enterprise Road in both directions for the 19th-annual Maxine DeHart 香蕉视频直播 United Way, Ramada Hotel Drive-Thru Breakfast.
DeHart spoke to the Capital News as she took a rest in Bill Sinclair香蕉视频直播檚 vintage car. Sinclair joined a handful of other British Car Club members waiting in line.
香蕉视频直播淭his is our 19th year,香蕉视频直播 said DeHart. 香蕉视频直播淭hey香蕉视频直播檝e all come en mass to get a bag and support me, I am so happy.

Last year the breakfast raised just over $50,000 and this year it was on track to beat that number. As of as of 8:30 a.m. the tally had hit more than $45,000.
