Community members came out to celebrate Juneteenth and raise funds for scholarships at the Garland Warren, Nelvia L. Burleson Memorial Cake Auction on Friday. The event helped raise funds to benefit Juneteenth Committee of San Marcos scholarship recipients. The Juneteenth Committee has sponsored scholarships for area high school graduates for the past 42 years. The cake auction is named after Garland and Nelvia who helped organizer Rose Brooks start the cake walk 42 years ago. This year's event also celebrated the lives of Ollie Giles and Harvey Miller who both made many contributions to the community. Daily Record photos by Lance Winter
