Pancakes And Community: Cheyenne's Breakfast Tradition Continues

The final 2025 Cheyenne Frontier Days Pancake Breakfast was held on Friday at the Cheyenne Depot Plaza.

Breakfast chair Denise Newell of the Cheyenne Kiwanis Club says things started a little slowly on Friday, but picked up later for a final count of 6,003 served. That followed a county of 7,093 on Wednesday and 4,493 on Monday for a total count of 17, 539 breakfasts for the week.
