Boone County Relay for Life was held Friday evening through Saturday morning, July 11-12, at the Boone Central High School track. About 60 cancer survivors participated in the annual Survivors Lap (above) led by a bagpipe player Kevin Arnold of the Omaha Drum and Bugle Corps. A total of 13 teams participated in this year’s event, raising nearly $18,000 in research funds for the American Cancer Society. The overnight walk was interrupted by lightning at about 1:45 a.m. Saturday.
