From our news partner, WBTA:

In a nationwide fundraising effort to fight childhood cancer, an Oakfield family will represent New York State.

This is the story of Brady Williams, a lemonade stand, and a whole lot of determination.

The family of 8-year-old Brady has been raising money for Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation every year since 2009.

The Foundation’s fundraiser, called Alex’s Lemonade Days, occurs during a weekend in June and is designed to raise money for fighting childhood cancer as well as raising awareness of the issue.

"We'll have our lemonade days fundraiser on June 13th and then we'll have our annual stand that we do every year during the Oakfield Labor Day celebration in September," says Brady's mother, Megan Williams.

Alex Scott was an 8-year old girl who passed away from neuroblastoma in 2004, the same cancer affecting Brady. 

She and her family helped raise more than $1 million to help find a cure with homemade lemonade stands.

The cancer in Brady was first detected in his chest wall before extending into his spinal cord and column.

He was diagnosed with cancer when doctors tried to determine why he hadn’t learned to walk as a baby.

After undergoing two surgeries as well as chemotherapy, the lively second-grader is in remission.

Brady and his family speak at schools to spread awareness of childhood cancer.

Alex’s Lemonade Days runs from June 12-14 this year.

"Our six-year total is over $20,000, so this year we're hoping to break $25,000 but I may adjust that based on how we do here June 13th. We may have to push that up even higher," says Megan.

Everyone wants lemonade around June, so the Williams family will continue to satisfy customers as well as work to fight for childhood cancer.

A smile like Brady’s shows a hope that never fails.

The Williams family lives on Drake Street in Oakfield.

Brady is one of a set of triplets.

I wasn't around for this, didn't even know about it until a few minutes ago when a relative of Katie Brownell sent me an e-mail, but Brownell once threw a perfect game, striking out 18 batters, in an Oakfield-Alabama Little League game.

That was 10 years ago. MLB.com has a story up today about the event, about Brownell's subsequent fame and her upcoming graduation from Buffalo State University. 

A grass fire is reported at 3562 E. Lockport Road, Oakfield.

That's the East Oakfield Cemetery.

On Coe Street, Oakfield, somebody discarded this forelorn Teddy Bear.

The Teddy Bear became a popular toy in the early 20th Century after Teddy Roosevelt refused to shoot a bear on a bear hunt. After days of hunting, in Missouri, Roosevelt's guides found a bear that was weakened by lack of food and captured it, tied it to a tree and waited for Roosevelt to catch up. Roosevelt wouldn't personally kill a bear in that condition. An illustrator on the trip drew a picture of the scene, and early Teddy Bears looked a lot like the artist's depiction of the bear. The rest of the story: The guides killed the bear and the hunters feasted on bear that evening, but the illustration helped cement Roosevelt's image as a humane conservationist.

While out in Oakfield today, I found Karl Dilcher running a Mother's Day chicken BBQ. This was the first day that Dilcher, owner of Alli's Cones & Dogs, offered chicken BBQ, something he says he plans to do every day, plus offer the service as catering for special events, including charities, graduations, weddings, etc. Pictured with Diltcher is Shorty Thomas, now working for Dilcher, who worked for years for Clor's.

After an honorable military discharge, he was employed by U.S. Gypsum for 11 years and survived severe injuries from a mine tunnel collapse. He farmed and ran a chicken egg business.

He was trained as a draftsman with the aid available from the Economic Opportunity Act of 1964, eventually retiring from Eastman Kodak Co. as a master draftsman engineer in 1989.

An avid naturalist and protector of wildlife, Al was also a marble shooter, game player, chess player, hunter, lover of dogs, cats, and the comedy duo Laurel & Hardy. He was a renowned billiards player, friend of Native Americans, and a Civil War enthusiast.
