The 12th annual Blake's Triathlon is this Saturday starting at 8:00am at Riverside Park in Independence. Chamber of Commerce Director Lisa Wilson says this is put on by Blake Bertie's family to honor her and help raise awareness and funding to help fight childhood cancer.
Wilson says for more information you can call (620)330-1500 or go to the website blakebertiecancerfoundation.org. You can also pick up a triathlon application at the Ash Youth Center.
