New Bern Shriners host annual fish fry to raise hospital funds
NEW BERN, N.C. (WNCT) — The New Bern area Shriners hosted the 58th Annual Fish Fry event on Friday, Apr. 18, 2025.
This event is to help fundraise for the Shriners Hospital in Greenville, South Carolina, which is their largest Orthopedic Hosptial in the southeast.
'We're hoping to raise somewhere around $35,000. That's after all of our expenses,' Chairman of the 58th Annual Fish Fry, Cleve Woolard said. 'So that $35,000 goes directly to the hospital. And we have a road runner's unit here that transports the patient from their home to the hospital. Don't cost them anything.'
This event took place at three different locations, the New Bern Shrine on Glenburnie Rd., the Burger King on Neuse Boulevard and Glenburnie Rd., and the intersection of Hwy 306 and Hwy 55 in Grantsboro.
