The heat in Butler City left some people dazed, while others were combating it by eating donuts glazed to celebrate National Donut Day on Friday, June 2.

Customers of Donut Connection on Center Avenue were especially sweet, buying pastries by the dozen.

The shop is operated by the Alliance for Nonprofit Resources, which reinvests funds back into the community with every sale.

Adam Hartwig, senior director of operations, said the bakery was bustling more than usual Friday morning.

By noon, they’d sold 1,723 donuts, which amounts to over 140 dozen.

“It was packed this morning, it was very busy,” he said. “We had four people behind the counter serving.”
