Walnut – The Walnut Valley Educational Foundation will be celebrating its 18th Annual Teddy Bear Tea on Sat., Nov. 15, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., at the Royal Vista Golf Club (located at 20055 E. Colima Road in Walnut).

This year’s Master of Ceremonies will be Walnut Valley Unified School District Superintendent, Dr. Robert Taylor. In addition, the Foundation will be honoring the District’s 2013-14 Teachers of the Year, as well as the Classified Employees of the Year.

As in the past, the highlight of the Tea will be a beautiful display of creatively dressed and decorated Teddy Bears. Those in attendance will have the opportunity to take one home by purchasing raffle tickets at the event.

All proceeds from the Tea will be used to fund classroom mini-grants throughout the Walnut Valley Unified School District.

Your support of this enjoyable and worthwhile event is appreciated as it will help teachers provide quality education for our students.
