The American Legion Riders Post 52, Ohio Valley Chapter in Bellaire, presents a check for $2,500 to the Bellaire Volunteer Fire Department on Wednesday. The donation comes from proceeds raised at the Second Annual Rick St. John Memorial Poker Run, which saw 75 bikes and more than 90 people. St. John, who died in 2019, was a member of the fire department as well as the Riders. Future donations will go to other fire departments. In front are, from left, American Legion Rider Director Chuck Clark with Lt. Jeremy Kartman of the Bellaire Volunteer Fire Department and Firefighter Jerry Donley.
