A large gathering of family members, staff and supporters  of Valley Haven School was on hand for Friday’s annual Christmas lunch at the school. Both the food and the fellowship were excellent.

The staff and students rolled out the red carpet for tours of the school.

Valley Haven is supported by the annual Hike/Bike/Run fundraisers, which annually generate more than $100,000.

This is the local match for funds from the state and federal levels.

Started in 1977, the Hike/Bike/Run takes place each year on the first Saturday in May.
