The Wellman Chamber of Commerce sought a grant from the Washington County Riverboat Foundation to help in purchasing a portable gas grill, and at the fall grant presentation they got their wish. WCRF President Mike Driscoll said at the ceremony, “The Chamber is interested in purchasing a large portable grill that can be used by other non-profit groups for fundraiser events. Not every group can afford to purchase this type of equipment. We hope our grant of $4,000 will help with fundraising events in Wellman.” The total cost for the project is $6,200. The $4,000 the Wellman Chamber of Commerce received was part of the $796,689 the WCRF awarded to the 30 organizations at the fall grant presentation.
