Val Avery

On Friday, April 7, 2006, our beloved colleague, instructor, board member and friend, Dr. Val Avery, died unexpectedly in her sleep.

As we, at Grand Circle Field School, have struggled to find a way to cope with this devastating loss, we have decided to establish the Val Avery Scholarship fund to honor our dear friend and to spread her enthusiasm for historical/environmental studies on the Arizona Strip to students who may need financial assistance in order to attend GCFS classes.

If you are so inclined to honor Val in this way, send your checks to:

GCFS — Val Avery Scholarship
7728 Cedar Canyon Court NE
Albuquerque, NM 87122

We'll keep you apprised of its progress and we'll send the family a letter acknowledging your gift. In addition, we'll send you a letter acknowledging your donation for your taxes.

Thank you.
