ALBANY, GA -- Folks were rockin' the night away at the Albany Museum of Art--all to benefit a local with breast cancer.

The dice run was a Flock of Gulls event to benefit Suzanne Bettis.

Bettis is a single mother of three and is self-employed and is currently going through chemo treatments.

“And of course, when you're going through chemotherapy, it makes it kind of hard to work. So, she has three children and can use some help,” says event coordinator Becky Daniel.

Aside from great music and barbecue, attendees had great auction items to bid on and also had the chance to win a Honda Rancher 4-wheeler.
