Valley View’s Holiday Cheer Party

The annual Holiday Cheer Party at Valley View on Sunday, December 4, 2011 from 1:00 PM to 4:00 PM turned out well with a good crowd (relatives and friends) again this year.  Valley View residents enjoyed chatting with them. This was one of the happiest and most enjoyable events of the year for them. It helped them to keep up with what is happening with the deaf community.  Everyone also enjoyed the refreshments which were provided by the Elwyn.  Many homemade cookies also brought to be distributed to the residents.

Around 3:00 p.m. the residents got cash gifts that were donated by the PA Society of the Advancement of the Deaf (PSAD), the Deaf & Hard of Hearing Senior Citizens of Delaware Valley (DHHSCDV) and the Keystone Central Deaf Senior Citizens (KCDSC).  It was a most exciting moment for the residents.  Everyone had a grand time.

Edward Jenkins, Sandy C. Duncan and Sharon Antal, the PSAD Representatives on the Elwyn Board of Directors and members of the Elwyn Deaf Services Advisory Committee want to thank Elwyn, Lewis Manges, Carole Surdyke and entire Valley View staff for making this event successful.
