🦋 🌸 🐝 WHO WANTS TO HELP SOMETHING WONDERFUL TAKE FLIGHT?

We've got an idea for next year's Zinnia and Monarch Festival...and Bees Too! and we're looking for someone who would LOVE to make it happen!

How about a Monarch, Zinnia & Bee Waffle Breakfast?!

We already have waffle irons that make waffles shaped like monarch butterflies, flowers, and bees! AND we have a couple of people willing to cook the waffles and the location!

But putting on a breakfast takes more than making waffles, and we're looking for that special someone who enjoys organizing, bringing people together, and turning a fun idea into a wonderful experience.

Here's what makes this even sweeter...

We'd love for the proceeds to benefit Monarch Joint Venture and Journey North, two organizations doing important work to support monarch conservation and migration awareness.

Imagine sending them a donation from Zion, Illinois, with a message that says:

"We're doing our part here in Zion!"

So, we're looking for a WAFFLE BREAKFAST CHAMPION! Someone who would be excited to take the lead, gather a team, and make this happen as part of our festival.

You wouldn't be starting from scratch, and you certainly wouldn't have to do it alone. We've already got the waffle irons, location and a cooking champion!

Could this be YOUR thing? Or do you know someone who would absolutely LOVE doing this?

Reach out to Cheri at Zion Township - [email protected] or 847-872-2811. We'd love to connect!

🦋 Small acts. Big impact. Zion together!
