Not only are area residents hunting for good deals at a local city-wide rummage, if they hit the right sale in Schofield, they're also raising money for a good cause.

The Greenheck Lady Bugs are donating all the proceeds they raise in this weekend's rummage sale to an organization dedicating to cancer research, all in the name of a good friend.

Relay for Life Sponsor, Peggy Kautza says, "The lady bugs were named after a dear friend and co-worker who passed away a few years ago from cancer, who loved lady bugs and so we do this in her memory."

Peggy says the rummage sale weekend is the perfect time to raise awareness of cancer research in the community.

She says the money they raised this weekend will help sponsor the Lady Bugs in the relay for life walk scheduled for next month.
