Press Release
In school year 2015-2016, the Penobscot Valley Conference (PVC) was comprised of thirty three schools from six counties around the state of Maine. The outer perimeter of the conference spanned from the northernmost Ft. Kent to Calais in the East, Deer Isle Stonington to the south, and Greenville at its furthest point west. Each year the PVC achieves many successes in athletics. There are local, regional, and state trophies for athletic excellence on display in their respective trophy cases each year. A lesser known accomplishment is the amount of fund-raising for the many worthy causes these schools and their athletic programs do on an annual basis. The PVC is proud to announce that in this past school year the Conference has raised and donated over $36,876.00 to local, state and national charitable foundations and organizations. These foundations and organizations include: Aliza Jean Family Cancer Foundation, All In For Addie, American Cancer Society, Bangor Homeless Shelter, Betsy Wright Foundation, Pennies for Patients, Relay for Life, Sarah’s House, Spruce Run Women Care, Susan G. Komen, and countless local individuals. Congratulations to the Penobscot Valley Conference for your continued support to those in need outside the lines of any field or court. Long after the plaques and trophies have been hung the benefits of your tireless effort continue to help and inspire.
