CHARLOTTE — Viewers arrived in record numbers at the WSOC-TV studios on Wednesday to drop off their donations for the 20th annual Steve’s Coats for Kids Collection Day.
The collection day is always a special event where viewers can donate coats and meet Steve Udelson, along with other Channel 9 on-air personalities.
The first 100 donors received a family four-pack of tickets to Cirque Du Soleil’s “Bazzar.”
