Video: Boys & Girls Clubs Honor Steelers Coach Bruce Arians

Steelers offensive coordinator receives the 2011 Youth Service Award from Mike Hepler, president and CEO of the Boys & Girls Clubs of Western Pennsylvania.

Pittsburgh Steelers offensive coordinator Bruce Arian received the 2011 Youth Service Award from Mike Hepler, president and CEO of the Boys & Girls Clubs of Western Pennsylvania, Monday night after the 34th Golf Classic at the Sewickley Heights , a few cocktails and numerous laughs.

Before presenting the service award, Hepler and board Chairman Tom McChesney also received a gift — a $5,000 check for the clubs from Raymond Haskins and Kevin Bethel on behalf of the Willis of Pennsylvania insurance firm.

The evening featured a silent auction featuring hotel getaways, entertainment packages and sports memorabilia. Hot items included signed Steelers jerseys and poster-sized photos autographed by the Steelers player and coaches featured in the pictures. All of the proceeds from the evening, including the silent auction, raffle and golf classic, went to the Boys & Girls Clubs.
