The Steel Horse Rally Inc. is proud to present these donations to local charities.

"This is the culmination of a lot of hard work involved with the 2023 Steel Horse Rally," said SHR Inc. President Dennis Snow. "A special thanks to the SHR Inc. board of directors, sponsors, volunteers, and each and every one of you who attended the 2023 Steel Horse Rally. Every time you made a donation for a charity cup or purchased an official rally T-shirt, you are making a positive impact on people's lives through these incredible charities. We couldn't do the rally without the support of the City of Fort Smith and all of our local law enforcement. Let's do it again next year on May 3rd & 4th in beautiful downtown Fort Smith, Arkansas!" #TheSteelHorseRally
