By Myrna Trauntvein Debbie Zirbes, county recorder, was wearing a different hat at commission meeting on Monday. She was representing Courage Against Cancer, along with committee members, and Jamie Garrett, county fair and events coordinator. Christmas trees were donated for Courage Against Cancer and were displayed at the county building from November 17 to December 1. Bids were taken during that time. “Proceeds for sale of the trees came to $6,500,” said Clinton Painter, commissioner. ”All proceeds go to support cancer patients here in Juab County.” “Thank you to everyone who made, bought or even came into the county building to bid on the Christmas Tree Fest this year,” said Zirbes. “Courage Against Cancer was the recipient of the money earned from that event. We received $6,500. That will go a long way helping cancer patients here in Juab County.“ “Thank you from all the gals on the committee,” she said. When asked how they found out who needed the service, Zirbes said that they found out by someone, friends or family members, telling the committee members about the person fighting cancer. “The thing that impresses me,” said Painter, “is that the money stays in the county.”
