Dear Editor:

On behalf of Blue Ridge Juvenile Detention, I want to thank VJJA for the Christmas gifts that were sent our way!  It was very thoughtful of the organization to sponsor "Operation Holiday" and much appreciated by both staff and residents.  I hope that you enjoy the enclosed thank you cards prepared by some of our residents.  Have a great 2009! 

Cathy Roessler
BRJD Programs Coordinator
