'Dancing With Our Stars' raises record $337,000 for Cancer Society

It was another record-setting night for "Dancing With Our Stars".

The annual fundraiser for the American Cancer Society brought in $337,111 Saturday night at the Paducah Convention Center. 

Dr. Kristen Williams, a surgeon at Baptist Health Paducah, was crowned this year's champion after personally raising $81,000 in donations. Williams and her dance partner, Emi Hensel, performed a routine set to the song “Popular” from the Broadway musical “Wicked”. 

Sarah Farris with the Arnold Reality Group was first runner-up raising $44,000 and optometrist Dr. Levi Mansfield was second runner-up raising $43,000. Mansfield was also named Fan Favorite for raising the most money during the show and Crowd Favorite.

Since 2007, “Dancing With Our Stars” has been the biggest fundraiser for the Paducah Chapter of the American Cancer Society. 

Next year, the event will move to the Paducah Expo Center.
