Michelle Ramlow, VFW Post Commander and Gilbert Dobbels, Post Quartermaster VFW were on hand to present a check in the amount of $1,000 for the purchase of softball equipment to the Central Illinois Riot. The Riot has expanded this year to three teams: 10u, 12u and 14u. Last year the team only had a 12u team.

Ramlow also gave an inspiring speech filled with words of encouragement to the girls as they get ready to start the softball season.

Last year the VFW also graciously donated $1,000 to the softball program.
