TERRE HAUTE, Ind. (WTWO/WAWV) The COVID-19 pandemic is still affecting many local businesses, but area nonprofits are using fundraisers to climb out of the hole left behind by the virus.
The Terre Haute German Oberlander Club has been around for nearly 54 years. Club Vice President Brad Cress said nearly all of its budget is generated by its Oktoberfest Celebration.
The celebration was cancelled last year due to COVID-19, and the organization was nearly forced to disband.
“Oktoberfest is pretty much our entire annual operating budget,” Cress said. “Without having an event like this and providing the party, it makes it very difficult for us to continue our normal operations.”
Top Chefs batters up a win
The annual Top Chefs event brings together nearly 100 local chefs for a night of friendly competition.
