Midwest Maidens
The January Third Sunday Breakfast sponsored by the VFW Auxiliary No. 2118 was held on Jan. 19. The nonprofit organization that received the profits from the breakfast this month was the Midwest Maidens Roller Derby Team.
Members of the team helped serve the breakfast to the members of the community. While serving the breakfast the members had a chance to talk about their organization and ways they interact with the community.
The Midwest Maidens team received a check for $575.
