Wheeling Parties on the Plaza for WVU Medicine

WHEELING, W.Va. (WTRF) — The summer’s biggest party has just wrapped up.

The Circus Saints and Sinners 4th annual Party on the Plaza once again drew hundreds of people to downtown Wheeling for a night of great music and amazing food.

Tonight’s event featured three amazing bands including The Franchise Band and Radio Tokyo both from the Pittsburgh area, as well as area favorite Zane Run.

Proceeds from Saturday’s event will go toward the new 150-bed WVU Medicine Children’s Hospital.

Party on the Plaza was once again presented by Panhandle Cleaning & Restoration.

“It was four years ago the Circus Saints and Sinners came to us and said ‘we want to do something special for the kids and the Wheeling community,’ and it has took off. Everyone is putting their support behind it and here we are four years later raising money for the kids so we can build healthier futures.”

Amy Bush, Chief Administrative Officer, WVU Medicine Children’s Hospital

“It’s really in our hearts at Panhandle. It’s something we really got behind because everybody is affected by a child. It could be your grandchild, your child, a niece, a nephew. So everybody knows a child that has been helped by WVU Children’s most likely, and it’s great for the entire state.”

Bob Contraguerro, Panhandle Cleaning & Restoration

“We are happy to do what we can for WVU Medicine Children’s Hospital and we are just having a great time raising money for a good cause.”

Paul Smith, Chairman, Party on the Plaza
