Pennsylvania state Rep. Marci Mustello, R-11th, hosted her annual Family Fun Night at the Butler Farm Show grounds Thursday evening, Aug. 24, in cooperation with the Butler County Chamber of Commerce and the Butler County Farm Bureau.

Children who attended the event excitedly went from one adventure to the next — including perennial crowd-pleasers like mini-golf, face-painting and a petting zoo.

During the event, attendees “stuffed the bus” by donating non-perishable food items in support of the Butler Golden Tornado’s Weekend Backpack Program, which provides healthy meals for underprivileged children in kindergarten through fifth grade.
