In this file photo, members of The Ohio Valley Street Survivors Car Club gather at Site One in Oglebay Park for their annual Good Zoo Benefit Car Show in August.
Eight local charities received $300 donations each from the Ohio Valley Street Survivors Car Club over the holiday season, despite cancellations of a number of the club’s events in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Donation recipients included Grow Warwood Pride, Bridgeport Christian Fellowship Food, Bethlehem Apostolic Temple, Catholic Charities, Wheeling Area Training Center for the Handicapped (WATCH), Winter Freeze Shelter, The Soup Kitchen of Greater Wheeling and the Easter Seals Rehabilitation Center in Wheeling. Due to the pandemic, club officers were unable to meet with the representatives of each organization as they have in recent years and the donations were mailed to each agency.
