Welcome

The Rio Vista Foundation is excited to announce dates for 2026 planned events:

Soup: February 14
Tea: May 9
Salad: August 15
Dessert: November 14

All events will be held at the Rio Vista Senior Center. Tickets are $40 each . The Dessert is a new event that we believe will be lots of fun. Come join us and help celebrate the beginning of the Holiday Season.

As you may be aware, the Rio Vista Foundation is a non-profit organization devoted to advancing community interests. Previous fundraising efforts have resulted in the construction of the community pool, working closely with the Rio Vista Sharks and the continuation of providing scholarships to graduating high school seniors to assist them in attending trade schools or certificate programs, to name a few of our projects.

The Board members of the Rio Vista Foundation are discussing plans to fund other activities to help in our community.

The Board extends its appreciation to Ralene Nelson as a working Board member and to Ralene Nelson, Re/Max Grupe Gold, for sponsoring several of our previous events and the commitment to sponsor the February 14 Soup Event.

Thanking you in advanced for all your support,

Mark Stokes
Chair of the Rio Vista Foundation
