VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. (WVEC) -- The Virginia Beach Volunteer Rescue Squad is gearing up for their largest fundraiser of the year- the 41st Annual Oyster Roast.
VBVRS is considered by many one of the largest volunteer-based EMS systems in the country. The team depends on donations to continue to offer free pre-hospital care and response to 911 calls.
Their biggest fundraiser, the Oyster Roast, is set for Sunday, March 5 from 1 to 5 p.m. at the Virginia Beach Convention Center.
Along with delicious oysters (raw, roasted and fried), the public will get to enjoy craft and domestic beer, as well as wine.
For non-seafood lovers, Beach Bully BBQ will be on site with friend chicken and sides.
The public will also get a chance to explore rescue squad vehicles and equipment.
