The third annual Butterfly Ball Masquerade welcomes all to the Cook’s Museum of Natural Science in Decatur in late November. The annual event benefits St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital and the PFK Foundation, which raises funds and awareness for pediatric cancer research, helps families battling serious medical conditions and gives back to the local community.
