The establishment was known as Rae’s Bar for several years, but Mitchell brought back the bar’s original name and enhanced everything about the place – including the food menu, the live entertainment, and, yes, the pool tables and leagues that now play at the venue a few times each week.

The importance of being an animal foster
PARKERSBURG, W.Va. (WTAP) - To bring awareness to all that animal foster parents do, we met with Erica Bailey, who is a foster for the Humane Society of Parkersburg. ”I actually got involved with the shelter about nine years ago. Probably eight years ago, I was convinced to take home a dog. Ever since then, we’ve fostered animals. It’s probably around the 100 range. We usually foster puppies, but we have done kittens and adult dogs like Scooby. It’s just a way that I can give back where they kind of live in our home and they are a part of our family until they find their new home,” said Bailey.
