The Simi Valley Education Foundation and Oakridge Athletic Club joined forces in April for a membership drive at Oakridge with partial proceeds benefiting our schools. Thanks to the great success of the membership drive and the extreme generosity of Oakridge Athletic Club, SVEF recently received $3600 that will go towards our teacher Enhancement Grant Program. We invited our local schools, along with our board, to attend a lunch and check presentation hosted by Oakridge.  But Oakridge did one more thing for our schools.  They presented each school with a $400 auction package that can be used at events in the coming year. This package included: a 3 month membership and personal training sessions. What an unbelievable opportunity for EVERY school in Simi Valley. As an added BONUS.... Oakridge Athletic Club also is offering ALL teachers, staff, and administrators in the Simi Valley Unified School District a one month trial membership during the summer....absolutely FREE.  (Just show your ID at the front desk!) Community partnerships like Oakridge Athletic Club are what help our foundation grow! ============================== The Tokens Benefit Concert!!!
