Dear KVHS Members, Volunteers, Donors and Friends,

On behalf of our board of directors, we wish to express our gratitude for helping us become better storytellers and purveyors of the Kankakee River Valley this year. Your engagement, whether it was in person or online, shaped our deeper understanding of who you are, what you would like to see and how to better serve you and your family.

Every time you take part in a festival, walk, breakfast, video, article, picture and post, you help to advance our mission: to protect & preserve the rich history, ecology and culture of the Kankakee Valley through the wise stewardship for this and future generations.

Sincerely,

John and Mary Hodson
