If you have a pen handy, circle Saturday, October 27th on your calendar and plan to visit the Valley Home Community Park to enjoy an evening with thrills and chills courtesy of Valley Home 4-H. Enjoy a visit to a Haunted House/Halloween Party, sponsored by the Valley Home 4-H Community Service Project Members.
