The event, put on by the Girard Estate Neighbors Association, offers people a free beer, in exchange for a jacket or other warm-weather accessory.
Girard estate neighbors association's Jessica Frye was very pleased with the effort. "It's always a really great turnout we bag sometimes 10 up to 16 contractor bags of coats".
