allowed following the “troubles” that had lasted
since 1968. On that visit things were still very
dicey, and we wanted to see how things had
progressed. We also wanted to play the great
courses of that country, having played many in
the Republic of Ireland on other visits.

When did you go? How long was your stay?
We went Labor Day weekend and stayed there
10 days.

What golf courses did you visit?
We played Royal County Down, Royal
Portrush (Dunluce Course), Port Stewart,
Castlerock, and Ardglass, each of them being
unique and challenging.

IN FOCUS

Kids in the
Kitchen

Valley’s kids headed to
the kitchen for the first
Cooking with Chef event
of 2019. After creating
eggrolls and fried rice,

Chef Ryan Somodji
taught the class how
to prepare delicious
chocolate chip cookies.
Flour dusted the faces
of some and hands got
messy, but the kids had
a blast making a yummy
meal from start to finish.

Cards for the
Community

It was heartwarming to
see our teenagers come
together for the fourth

annual Valentine’s Day
cardmaking adventure.

Chris Huston led the
event in the YAC and
helped volunteers create
cards for the residents
of Morningstar Senior

Living Center.

There’s no such
thing as a small act

of kindness. Every
act creates a ripple
with no logical end.”

Taking It Back
Old School

Valley's Welcome Back
to Valley High party was
a hit! Jell-O shots, beer
pong, dancing, and a
photo booth complete
with props were just the
beginning. But don't
just take our word for it.
See what the attending
Members had to say:

"Craig and I enjoyed the
Valley High Party! All the
extras that you planned,
including the name tags,
8x10 pictures with 'most
likely to,' [the] DJ, picture
booth, trivia, century
Mad Lib, icebreakers, and
food were all fabulous! ...
Such a great way to meet
and get to know other
Valley Members! Thanks
for all your work on
this event!"
Lynn Cahen

"Great job on the food.
It was nice that it wasn't
all fried or pastries,
and even better that
everything was well-
seasoned and super
tasty. The party planning
and decorations were
also fantastic. This was a
really great event."
Steve and Kym Biagiotti

"[We] had so much fun
at the Valley High party.
[The] games were fun,
especially the human
scavenger hunt which
allowed us to meet
other people. The food
was delicious, and
the decorations were
awesome! Great party!"
