On board for fun

Many residents from the Steubenville-Weirton area boarded two chartered buses on Tuesday for an evening of baseball at PNC Park. The annual Steubenville-Weirton Community Night featured a matchup between the Pittsburgh Pirates and the Detroit Tigers. Organized by the Herald-Star and The Weirton Daily Times, the event was supported by local sponsors, including the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers Local 246 and M&M Hardware of Steubenville. Attendees enjoyed round-trip transportation, game tickets, and $5 in concession credits, enhancing the overall experience. Community events like this promote local engagement and foster a sense of unity among residents.

The event drew significant interest, with many expressing excitement about the opportunity to bond over sports. Local businesses benefit from such gatherings as they attract residents to the area. This year's event continues a tradition that strengthens community ties through shared experiences.
