We had a great turnout for "Decorating with Dad" today at CVE! So many dads, grandpas, uncles, guardians, and even a few moms showed up to help design and build that one special Valentine's Day box with/for their children. Thanks so much to the Central Valley PTO for supplying all of the decorating supplies and the delicious popcorn, and to Mrs. Kathy Donovan for popping all the popcorn. Awesome job, everyone!
