He tried selling pancake tickets while in Florida
John Berg was given an assignment: sell 20 tickets to the Kiwanis Pancake supper in Ada. Sounds simple enough, but not if you are spending a couple of months in Florida. The retired education prof did his best, trying to hawk tickets at a Florida Walmart, even a Methodist Church down there? Despite his meager sales, the club surprised him with a caricature for his efforts. The drawing was done by Kory Hubbell, an Ada grad who now lives in Columbus. For more pancake photos click here.
