Starting in 2011 our faithful Member Sponsors donations first restored the losses JVIA has suffered due to months of closure while the JVIA Well was drilled and the kitchen underwent a major remodel.

A grant from the County paid for all that and our volunteers donated hours of time and materials, but our Association had lost the regular income from the Saturday Breakfasts and Dinners. Regular expenses, insurance, taxes and permits and more permits kept on coming.

Every year since then, the generosity of our Member Sponsors has built up a find that stood us in good stead when the Covid lockdowns hit in 2021. Once again, our regular income flow was interrupted, but building maintenance continued, utility bills, permits, insurance and tax bills were paid.

To our members who gave extra when you paid your dues, please know your generosity for the last thirteen years has been appreciated by every JVIA Officers and Directors. As the Association enters its 67^th year in uncertain times for everyone, once again, thank you!
