On Sept. 4, the Alpha Omega Fraternity hosted a late-night breakfast. They had pancakes, bacon, eggs and drinks.
The staff were sophomore Tate Shoemaker, junior Jacob Eacker, sophomore Zebediah Black, senior Samuel Armett and junior Cody Eye.
The event was a way for the Alpha Omegas to help the students at Doane University with an affordable meal late into the night. It was $7 for the pancake platter, which netted 3 pancakes, 2 eggs, scrambled, and 2 pieces of bacon. Drinks were $1 apiece and delivery to on-campus addresses was $2.

“One of our biggest things is obviously fundraising for our fraternity, but just getting outreach to people that don’t know much about us, we got a smaller group right now, and we’re looking to expand our numbers,” Shoemaker said.
The event is a yearly occurrence, and this time around, the Alpha Omegas decided to host their late-night breakfast event in the newly opened Brodie Hall.
“One of the problems was that we were going to bring out the blackstone for bacon, but the whole back patio of Brodie Hall is being renovated, so we had to relocate where we did some things, but I think we managed pretty well,” Shoemaker said.
The Alpha Omegas did manage to get the number of people needed to work the event.
“I think we were able to pull the minimum number for this event, but I think that Brodie Hall is a great place for people to hang out, play music, all that stuff, and I think that it went pretty well, considering what we had,” Shoemaker said.
Any students that missed out on the event should know that this event occurs multiple times a year.
