Pancake breakfast Before the parade, though, will be the annual Fallon Rotary Club Labor Day pancake breakfast hosted by the Fallon Rotary Club. Both the parade and breakfast have been favorite stops for many local and state politicians who participate in the Labor Day festivities. The breakfast is from 7-10 a.m. and includes all-you-can eat pancakes, sausage, eggs, fresh fruit, coffee and Sandhill Diary white and chocolate milk. The cost is $10 for adults and $4 for children. The breakfast will be held behind the Churchill County Library.
