Merryl and John McRae were the high bidders for a weeklong cruise at the April 16 fundraiser for the Friends of Tri-Valley Foundation. About 200 attendees raised more than $17,000 for Tri-Valley Developmental Services which aids the intellectually and developmentally disabled. Since 2001, the foundation has built six homes to accommodate 48 clients split between Allen, Neosho and Bourbon counties.
