The Tri-Valley Foster Grandparent Program held its yearly Christmas Party on Friday December 1, 2017 at Trinity Lutheran Church in Crookston. The students in grades K-4 from Our Saviors Lutheran Day School started out by entertaining the group by singing Christmas songs. Two of our Foster Grandparents who were unable to attend our annual recognition event in October were given their awards at the Christmas Party. They were Carol Liebl who volunteers at St Michaels in Mahnomen as well as Delores Lein who volunteers at Challenger Elementary in TRF. They were both very surprised and happy to receive the “World of Difference” award. The award is engraved with, “With the little things you do every day, your impact spreads far and wide. Your commitment to improving lives inspires and motivates us all… You make a world of difference.” Bingo was played, prizes 
won, singing was done and a wonderful brunch of muffins and egg bake was enjoyed by all who attended.
