CRESTVIEW — Shelter House has gained $12,514 to help Okaloosa and Walton counties' domestic and sexual violence victims.

More than 500 Jeep enthusiasts attended the 2nd Annual All American Jeep Show at Old Spanish Trail Park in Crestview, a fundraiser for the nonprofit organization. The event included Jeeps on display, awards, a silent auction, a poker run, bounce houses and a demonstration by the Crestview Fire Department.

“The funds they raised at this event will allow Shelter House to serve more women, children and men right here in our local community who are recovering from domestic and sexual violence,” Shelter House Executive Director Rosalyn Iovieno said.

“I'm overwhelmed by all of the support from the Jeep community and the generosity of our local and national sponsors,” said event organizer Jeff Bullard, All American Jeep Club  president.

Presenting sponsors included the All American Jeep Club, Tattoos Forever, Lee Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram, Summerlin Truck Outfitter and Elite Jeeps Inc.
