COLUMBIA (WACH) -- Epworth Children’s Home celebrating their 3rd annual “Cookout for Kids” BBQ!

There was plenty of live music and a display of about 30 beautifully restored Model A Fords on their campus Saturday.

The Epworth Alumni Association is made up of more than 600 past residents of the home.

They decided to sponsor the BBQ three years ago as a way to give back to the place that helped them through difficult times in their lives.

All proceeds from the cook-out will benefit the children’s home.
