The Farmers Bank's Candice Getting was among several bank employees selling special Relay For Life water outside the Spencer financial institution Friday, raising money for Team Lucky Pennies to donate to the Relay For Life. Trey Sievers, with his mother, Amy, spends a dollar of his limited financial empire for a bottle of water, making his contribution to this year's Relay. Relay For Life in Clay County gets underway Saturday with opening ceremonies at 4 p.m. All of the local Relay activities will take place at Dale Norton Field on the Spencer High School campus once again this year. Last year, the Clay County Fairgrounds hosted the event.
