The Chicago Automobile Trade Association (CATA), the Chicago-area’s new-car dealer association, once again partnered with the USO to host the 11th annual BBQ for the Troops fundraisers. To date, 60 local new-car dealerships rallied their communities to bring in $81,267 for the USO. The barbecue-themed events, held last month, featured everything from patriotic ceremonies, classic car shows, live music, games for kids of all ages and, of course, barbecues.
