37th Annual Community Breakfast (Virtual)
honoring The Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
The virtual program/livestream link will be available HERE beginning at 7:45 a.m. on Monday, January 17, 2022.
Please Note: Due to health and safety concerns around the rise in COVID-19 cases, and recommendations from health professionals in our community, the MLK Jr. Breakfast committee has made the decision to cancel the in-person portion of this year’s breakfast. As much as we hoped to gather as a community and celebrate Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. together, we want to keep our community safe.
For all those who have registered already, you will be contacted directly about a refund or option to donate to the MLK Jr. Breakfast and scholarship fund. There is no cost for those who wish to watch the event virtually.
