Following the speeches the evening was turned over to recognize Mary Ryan as she prepares to retire from her position of 38 years as a Co-Director. Carlie Duval, an alumnus of Clearway delivered a moving tribute of the impact Mary had on her life. 

 

Many families and local businesses donated our raffle and auction items and it was a great success.
