Bettendorf, IA - The Horvath family will be hosting the Pleasant Valley Sparkles Christmas party this Sunday, December 18th at 4:15pm at their home.  Happy Joe Whitty will be stopping by to bring added holiday cheer to the event.  The Sparkles and their mentors will enjoy an evening of pizza, soda, Christmas crafts, a gift exchange and music.

Additionally, the Sparkles would like to extend their thanks and gratitude to Happy Joe's, who graciously donated pizza for the party.
