Lynn Valley Rave





LYNN Valley Elementary School says it's time to shake off the cobwebs and get into the "spring" of things. At least that's what organizers of their recent Family Rave had in mind when they invited kids and their parents to party the night away together. Friday, Mar. 8 saw the gymnasium transformed into a dancing palace complete with a live DJ and fancy lights as everyone took to the floor to twirl, jump and shake. Special performances by the kids at Vanleena Dance highlighted an evening of good, clean, family fun.
