Due to sudden illness, the Minerva Fire Department, the Minerva Firefighters Association, and Minerva Youth Football will host a benefit breakfast in honor of retired Captain Ryan “Smitty” Smith and the Smith Family. Smitty spent many years selflessly serving his community. We are now coming together to support him and his family, with all proceeds going directly to the Smith family during this difficult time.

The breakfast will cost $10 per person and there will be a basket raffle. Baskets can be dropped off at the Minerva fire station and monetary donations can be made out to Minerva Firefighters Association to be forwarded to the Smith family. For more information, call 330-205-0191.
