(Beaver Falls, PA) A “Goodie Bag” Stuffing party was held at WBVP-WMBA Friday night.  Volunteers, Run For McGuire committee members and radio station staffers all pitched in to help prepare a little over 200 bags to be given to participants in Sunday’s “Run For McGuire – A Special Ride For Special People.”   Pizza, wings and rolls  from Vocelli Pizza in Rochester were enjoyed by the group as they made quick work of filling the bags with lots of great items that included Beaver Falls McDonald’s breakfast sandwich coupons, Fun Fore All $5 Gift cards, McGuire Memorial Hats, travel mugs, clips, magnets, visors, notepads, and pins, Rebecca Miller Farmers Insurance squeezable stress relieving motorcycle toys, pens from Huntington Bank and  Cycle Motion in East Palestine, complimentary pretzel cards from Philly Pretzel Factory in the Chippewa Wal Mart, along with  route directions and other informational flyers.  Select Bags also featured Blackies Automotive tee shirts and McGuire Memorial tote bags.
