Read The Nomination Letter: By Mary's Daughter, Taylor Valencia

She deserves to be recognized because she is always helping out the youth football group and helping out the high school. She is always helping everyone out and she treats every kid like they belong to her.

Get to Know Mary...

You know that one lady you see around town… The one that is helping run the softball snack bar… She’s the same lady you see behind the youth football snack bar… She’s also the one who is the “Go To” Girl for the High School Football Booster organization. And you know every time you see this wonderful lady, she has a warm inviting smile on her face and seems so calm, cool and collected. And all at the same time she is somehow managing to raise four beautifully proud, compassionate and intelligent children that range from the age of 2 years old to 16 years old. And let’s not forget how she takes loving care of her wonderful husband, her biggest baby of all.

On any given day she could be seen driving one child to preschool, one to elementary school, one to middle school and her oldest to high school. She then travels to work to help support her family, to then turn around towards home in the afternoon to pick up her daughter from daycare, her son from elementary school, her daughter from middle school and her son from high school.

Then she may take her daughter to softball practice, her son to a baseball game, and her oldest son to his H.S. football practice. After all that she may take herself to her own board meeting.

Somehow during all this, she feeds her family and shows them each all the love that they need. And let’s remind you; she somehow is still doing all of this with a smile on her lovely face.

But this lady does not stop giving of herself at her family level. Remember she’s the same lady that is helping out all of those youth sports programs.

Last season our JAAF Menifee Wildcat Chapter found itself in need of a president. And yes, it is this wonderful mother, wife and community member that stepped up, without hesitation, to be our leader, “The Mother of our Pack”. As she has done this, she has taken each child under this organization under her care to ensure their safety and well being on and off the football field. During the football season, you will find her sitting with her family each and every Saturday from morning till night showing support to each and every player. She treats every child, every coach, and every parent with respect.

Her daughter, Taylor, sees her mom as a wonderful community member and has nominated her mom to be the 411MenifeeValley.Com Community Member of the Month. We are proud to recognize Mary Valencia, our own JAAF Menifee Wildcat President as the 411MenifeeValley.Com Community Member of the Month.
