Relay still has time for goal

Crittenden County's Relay For Life held last weekend was a bit short of its goal of $24,000, but the American Cancer Society project has a few more months to collect donations.

Relay, held indoors at the National Guard Armory due to weather, took in just over $18,000. However, organizers have until August to collect more for cancer research. They hope to reach the goal by late summer.

Read more about this and other community events in this week's printed edition of The Crittenden Press, on sale at newsstands after 3 p.m., today.

Also, photographs of Crittenden Elementary School's Distinguished and Proficient students from last year's CATS testing will be published in a two-page spread in this week's paper.
