  “We certainly lucked out on a wonderful evening!” was heard by many attending the ACS Relay For Life of Butler County on July 10 at the fairgrounds in Allison with a great crowd in attendance. The predicted rainy weather held off and gave way to a great outdoor night. Organizers could not have been happier about being able to hold the outdoors fundraising event.
  Funds raised for the event are destined for research, advocacy, treatment and education. While the official totals are not yet in, Butler County exceeded its $60,000 goal with the last reported total of over $63,000.
  The silent auction items, organized by Leanne Schipper, were highly popular again this year. Final totals will be released this week.
