A delightful time was had by all at our Spring banquet. It featured Chuck Rhodes who was as heartfelt as he was humorous! We’ve missed him on our TV screens since he retired 11 years ago from abc27. But all in the sold out attendance agreed, he hasn’t skipped a beat! Thank you to Tony and Bailey on the education committee for planning a great evening and to Walker Grange for the delicious meal.

Milton Grove Brick Engraving (a Pennsylvania company) sent us a preview as they are working on the 238 bricks sponsored by YOU and dedicated to your families. This Spring, the Tuscarora Academy’s pathway will be installed by JPH Enterprises so that our friends & partners at Juniata River Valley Chamber of Commerce Leadership Class can work their project magic on creating curb appeal, accessibility, and legacy for generations to come. Mark your calendars and join us for a ribbon cutting on opening day Sunday June 7 at 1:30 ✂️
We’re excited and feeling extra blessed this year!
