Valley Apprentice Team Modesto Bee Article

If you didn't see it yesterday, click here for the latest article written about our Valley Apprentice Team, "Valley Heat" in the Modesto Bee.

Yesterday the team met with CHS executive Director, Cindy Duenas, to share their preliminary ideas.  While they would prefer that the specifics of their plan be kept under wraps, we can share with you that is it VERY exciting!  This team is impressive and their combined brain power is going to bring the agency, and our community, great things.

On April 7th "Valley Heat" plans to take youth from our Pathways program to the opening night for the Modesto Nuts!  This will be one of many public appearances so feel free to join us that evening.  Other public appearances will take place on April 28, 2011 at our Put a Cork In It event at Del Rio and at Westside Swing for Kids Golf Tournament at Diablo Grande on May 14, 2011.
