Here is a sight that has some nice recipes and ideas for feeding crowds....http://www.angelfire.com/bc/incredible/Servesfiftyindex.html
I think I would figure, 2 pancakes, 2 eggs and 2 sausages. Pumkin will make the pancakes more filling, and the five year olds will probably only eat 1,1,1 but the 40 year olds will help them out... Hope that helps...

For about 50 people, with the variety of things you are having, I'd say about 60 pancakes, 5 dozen (maybe less as they are for scrambled style) eggs, 5-6# bacon and/or 6# sausage links (that's about 100 pieces each) and maybe 2-3 gallons of juice.

If you want cheese in the scrambled eggs, go with about a pound of shredded....and you're looking 2 containers of syrup.

I really can be of no 'real' help I'm sorry. Folks around here just buy large bags of 'Kruteas' mix at costco and lots of the other stuff. They just keep cooking until everyone is full. Of course being female I never have anything to do with the fathers/son's except send mine. What I got a kick out of in your post was the fact that you said age 5 and up. Around here if they're not nursing (or 'need' to nurse) they go with 'papa' (I mean they need to learn how to take care of youngun's too...as they helped bring these sons into the world...so might as well start them while their little...if circumstances permit). Hope you understood what I was trying to say. Good Luck!
Sincerely, Brenda
p.s. I would love to see reactions on their faces if they ate 'veggie' sausage and enjoyed it without knowing what it was...I dare you!!! *wicked 'Medusa' smile*
