WBTW.com is reporting that WMIR/Myrtle Beach, SC, has raised over $80,000 from an oyster roast in North Myrtle Beach. More than 900 people showed up for the roast. The funds raised will help local families affected by cancer.
“We started with two bushels of oysters and a bunch of friends. The next year it grew to 40 and the next year it was like 150,” said Timmy Ray Davis, who started the event in his own backyard 12 years ago.
“People that have light bills, mortgage payments, doctor bills – what have you. We thought actually that would be the best way to give back,” said Davis.
