Sweets for disaster relief

Connie Jo Discoe/McCook Gazette

ABOVE: Duane Acton of McCook counts out his donation this morning to MNB Bank's bake sale for disaster relief and recovery to help fellow Nebraskans recover from historic, cyclone-force rain, flooding and snow that struck northeastern Nebraska and the Sandhills and Panhandle on March 13 and 14. RIGHT: From among tables and tables of goodies baked by MNB employees, Joann Barenberg tempted another shopper, Andy O'Dea, with a pan of "scotcheroos." Proceeds from the bake sale — as well as about $1,000 in cash donations — will be sent to the Nebraska Community Foundation's "Bank on Nebraska Strong" disaster relief account; the Nebraska Bankers Association board of directors will distribute funds.
