CROSSVILLE — With Veteran's Day just around the corner, it is time for the Lake Tansi Exchange Club's annual One Nation Under God Breakfast. In honor of all veterans, the Exchange Club will host a free pancake and sausage breakfast on Saturday, Nov. 10 at the Thunderbird Recreation Center. Breakfast will start at 8 a.m. and the program immediately following. This years guest speaker will be Chief Master Sgt Mark Thompson, USAF (Ret). Mark was active in the Air Force for 25 years and shares with us some of his many experiences while on duty, his love of God and this great country. If you have not heard Mark, you will surely want to and if you have, you will want to hear him again! Get inspired with a patriotic program and a fantastic speaker. Bring yourself, your neighbors, your veterans and your appetite as they honor the men and women who sacrifice so much for our freedoms and liberties. Their cooks are ready to throw a pancake and sausage on the griddle for you, so see you there!
