Classic car show helps fire department’s community outreach programs

EAST LIVERPOOL, Ohio (WKBN) — Looking for something to do next Saturday? The East Liverpool Firefighters Union is hosting its third annual car and motorcycle show.

The event is next Saturday, July 27, from 12:30 to 4:30 p.m., followed by a “Party in the Diamond,” which kicks off at 5 p.m. There will classic cars and music, as well as food and drinks.

All the money raised goes toward the fire department’s Toys for Tots campaign , which has expanded from providing toys to local children in need for Christmas to even providing scholarships for local high school seniors.

“There are a lot of us that are actually from East Liverpool and from this community — grew up here,” said Alex Estell, with the East Liverpool Fire Department. “So, we know the struggles that other people have, and that’s why we choose to do everything that we’ve done.”

All the fun is set to take place in the Diamond in downtown East Liverpool, at the intersections of St. Clair Avenue and Market Street.
