Pittsburgh Steelwheelers
For years, Edgar Snyder & Associates has participated in a 5k in support of the Pittsburgh Steelwheelers, hosted by the Western Pennsylvania Trial Lawyers Association. Recently, we wanted to increase our involvement with the Steelwheelers, so we became the sponsor of their annual Adaptive Rugby Tournament.
