Relay for Life coming June 10th - "Betting on a Cure"

We are quickly approaching the annual Relay For Life festivities that will be held at the Bates County Fairgrounds on June 10th. The event will kick off at 6 p.m. with the opening ceremony, followed by the survivor walk. The evening will be a great family outing with food, games and entertainment.

Luminaries are on sale for $5 each and may be purchased up to and throughout the evening of the 10th. This year's goal is to raise $50,750.00 (surpassing last year's number). All money goes to the American Cancer Society to help fine a cure.

This year, Mary Holcomb, 85, has been recognized as the oldest cancer survivor in the Butler area. "Granny", as she's known, will be recognized during the event.
