WATERFORD — On hiatus since 2019 due to the pandemic, the much-loved Waterford Summer Breakfasts returned on July 4. Precautions were in place with spacing of tables and masks available, but these wonderful gatherings began again with 360 exuberant guests and volunteers. Hosted at the Wilkins House on Plummer Hill in the Flat of Waterford, adjacent to the Congregational Church, there will be three more breakfasts this summer on Wednesdays, July 20, August 3, and August 17.  All will be from 7:30-10 a.m.

The breakfast consists of scrambled eggs, pancakes, bacon, sausage, muffins, donut holes, juice, coffee, tea, and real Maine maple syrup. The price is $10 for Adults, and $5 for Children 10 and under.

Volunteers are always welcome.  For more information about volunteering, contact Ginny at [email protected].

It was 68 years ago when this tradition became a reality.  Summer visitors, especially, look forward to the breakfasts.  It’s an occasion to see friends, both long-time residents and other summer folks. All are welcome.

Proceeds from the breakfast help with the upkeep of the Wilkins House, a longtime community gathering place in the heart of Waterford Flat.
