BCLUW to host "Black Out Cancer" Fundraiser

On Friday, Jan. 15, during its home basketball game against South Hardin, BCLUW High School will be hosting a benefit for three BCLUW family members who are battling cancer. Library Aide Kelly Hoover and Yolanda Butler, the wife of Industrial Arts teacher David Butler are both currently in the midst of chemotherapy treatment after being diagnosed with breast cancer. The event will also benefit elementary bus driver and janitor Rick Mull, who has been battling cancer throughout the school year.
 
There will be a free-will pancake dinner that evening from 5:00 to 7:00 p.m. followed by a silent auction and other fundraising activities. Comet fans are encouraged to wear black to “Black Out Cancer” at both the game on Friday night and the home wrestling meet on Tuesday against Sumner-Fredericksburg. T-shirts were also sold to help benefit the Mull, Hoover and Butler families.
