Pine Valley Community Nativity Lighting

Community members gathered on Saturday evening, December 4, to mark the beginning of the Christmas season. Bob Dalley offered some remarks, carols were sung and hot chocolate and donuts enjoyed by all who came. Thanks to those who organized the activity and to all who worked to set it up. Coming into the valley to see the nativity adds a  beautiful and peaceful experience to the holiday season.

Preparedness Seminar Saturday, November 6

 

This afternoon, the Pine Valley Preparedness Committee hosted a very informative meeting about "Bug Out Bags." There are many types of Bug Out Bags, but basically they are some kind of a backpack or other container that holds the essential items you would need to survive for at least 72 hours. There were three main presentations, one explaining the types of bags and what they might contain, another demonstrating Over the Counter Medical Essentials (this bag had been assembled based on suggestions from an earlier preparedness seminar.) The last showed an example of a bug out bag and all of the things it might contain. Many of the attendees added other ideas that helped us all plan for more complete bags of our own.

If you click on the Preparedness tab at the top of the page, you will find links to the information from all three of the presentations.  As we discussed in the meeting, there are several reasons why we might need to evacuate from the valley, the main one being fire. Go Bags will help us be ready for such an emergency.

Pine Valley Flag Project

Many of you noticed the flags in the valley today--there are now 180 that are placed throughout town. In addition to the flags lining the streets, there are 13 flags behind the chapel. These were placed to honor our national heroes, recently fallen in Afghanistan, with the center flag honoring Staff Sgt. Darin T. Hoover of Salt Lake City. These men are all gone but not forgotten; let’s all remember their families in our prayers. 

People often ask if they can help support the flag project and we could use your help now. Today 20 additional flags were added on the west side of the road coming into the valley. We would like to add the same number on the other side of the road. Funds are also continuously used for flag maintenance and replacement. If you would like to help with the flag project, you can make a donation to: 

--Pine Valley Special Service District 

680 E Main Street 

Pine Valley, Utah 84781 

--We also now have a Venmo account @pine-valley-2 

--And finally, if you see any of the flag crews out putting up or taking down flags, you can give a donation to them and they will get it into the correct fund. 

Thanks for your support. Having these beautiful flags flying has only been possible because of donations from Pine Valley community members and friends of the valley. Thank you!
