Weeping Water elementary special education teacher Katrina Bescheinen stands in front of a large number of people in the Weeping Water cafeteria Thursday night. Bescheinen is fighting cervical cancer that has spread to her lungs. A large number of community members supported her by purchasing food and taking part in a basket auction. Organizers donated all proceeds to Bescheinen to help her pay medical bills.

Residents view a line of baskets during an auction at Weeping Water Thursday night. Community members cast bids on dozens of baskets throughout the evening.
Baskets from both Weeping Water and Yutan rest on a table near one of the doors in the Weeping Water cafeteria. Weeping Water hosted Yutan for girls and boys basketball games during the evening. Yutan fans learned about the fund-raising event and wanted to help Bescheinen at the basket auction.
