Valaree Dickerson has always been a community activist, working tirelessly to improve the lives of those in her community as seen in a recent press release in which she states, “I always refer to Poolesville as “The House That Built Me”…. Everything I do, I do for Poolesville. Out of true love for the greatest little village in America….I learned it all from the largest stewardship on the planet … the Poolesville area residents!” She is the former Vice President of the Board of Commissioners for The Town of Poolesville (elected official – 2011-2020) and is the Co-Founder and past Program Director for the Poolesville Area Senior Center.
