We want to thank everyone who came out to our fundraiser Saturday and appreciate all the support in helping the center. In addition, we appreciated the city of Hillsboro for letting us have the fireworks show, along with our gratitude to our board members for their hard work and Charles Rempel for a great fireworks display.
