A local group is holding a march and rally against fracking Saturday in downtown Butler.
Marcellus Outreach Butler is sponsoring the event, which begins at noon at the Butler Middle School (former Junior High) and continues until 2 p.m. at Diamond Park.
The organization is a founding member of the Protect Our Children Coalition, which has a goal of putting pressure on township, county, and state officials to end unconventional gas drilling near schools.
A hearing is also scheduled to take place at the Butler County Courthouse on September 16 concerning the placement of Rex Energy wells a half mile from the campus of Mars Are School District.
