We are thrilled to share that the Ross Valley Players’ production of Crossing Delancey was a marvelous success! On September 28th, we enjoyed a full house and full hearts as we came together for an unforgettable evening.
A special thank you to Christine Garcia, CEO of Side by Side, for her inspiring words. We were honored to have many of our Board members in attendance, making the night even more special. Our deepest gratitude goes to the Side by Side Development team: Sheila Aceves, Betsy Ross (and her husband Tracy), and Katie Rice Jones. Your dedication and hard work made this event possible. We also want to extend a heartfelt thank you to the Ross Valley Players’ volunteers. Your efforts behind the scenes ensured everything ran smoothly.
Thank you all for making this night one to remember!
All of us face adversity and challenges sometimes. Knowing that someone cares can make all the difference.
