YES Home gets boost from ride fundraiser

There was an ultimate turnout for the YES Home Ride sponsored by the Infamous Few Charity Riders on Sat., Aug. 2. There were 100 bikes and 104 Jeeps and side-by-sides raising $14,000 for the YES Home in Aurora that serves several counties, including Ripley. The money will help provide the YES Home children with day-to-day necessities - things the State doesn’t cover. Food and live music was hosted by the Milan Legion Post #235.
