CONGRATULATIONS to Matt Smith (Batavia High School) on being runner-up in the recent Mr. Batavia competition.
Matt was quoted on theBatavian.com: “…I learned about Michael's story, what the family went through and what every family who is fighting cancer right now, so I decided there was no other charity I wanted to represent, and thankful to raise 25 percent towards the foundation to fight cancer.”
