TOIVOLA -- The Mattila family is teaming up with Finish Line Diner in Toivola to raise money for Relay for Life.

All of the baked goods are made by people in the community.  With cupcakes, pastries, and cookies, the diner has all kinds of food to satisfy your sweet tooth.

The Mattila family says all are welcome, and it's up to you to decide on how much of a donation you would like to give.  The family started the bake sale five years ago.

"In the Mattila family, there have been a lot of different relatives that have had cancer, and so we've been doing it just to raise money to fight cancer," said Dianne Mattila, Relay for Life Team Captain.

This is the final bake sale before the relay.

If you'd like to make a donation and eat some tasty treats, you can stop by the Finish Line Diner from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. on Friday and Saturday.
