Wilson’s World: Enjoying Great IHOP Pancakes and Talking Hometown Heroes

Jon Wilson,

CHARLOTTE, N.C. – Wilson stopped back in at the newest location of  IHOP’s on Highland Shoppes Drive   to enjoy some of the new pancakes they are offering during the holiday season and talk with Mecklenburg County Sheriff Irwin Carmichael about the Hometown Heroes Christmas tree lot.

The Hometown Heroes Christmas tree lot is all about the kids.  Helping children who suffer with terminal illnesses or debilitating injuries and their families get through the rough roads they have to follow throughout their journey is the mission for Hometown Heroes.  “Big Kids Helping Little Kids” is not just a motto for these volunteers.

One of the lots is located down the road from the IHOP on Highlands Shoppes Drive at Mallard Creek Presbyterian Church.  And there are 3 more locations around the area.  For locations and hours, go to their website at htheroes.org.  All of the trees are grown in North Carolina, cut fresh and brought straight to the lots.

Be sure to stop by your local IHOP and enjoy your favorite pancakes as well as  seasonal favorites like the new eggnog, the pumpkin spice and dark chocolate peppermint pancakes.
Wilson had a little fun with Kristine when she wanted some of the eggnog pancakes.  It is amazing what lengths he will go to in order to get her to say the word “butt” on TV.
