The Family Fun Fest Planning Team Members
We would like to dedicate the continued efforts of
this committee in memory of Paula Elkin, a retired teacher/guidance
counselor, whom we lost during the planning of Family Fun Fest.
She was a
strong advocate for the children of Indiana County. She will be missed. |
