Valley Chat

One more place for conversations among Valley residents.

Why did I set this up? I’ve been frustrated trying to engage in online conversations on Facebook and Next-door because the algorithms on those platforms show us what the software thinks we want to se. Personally, I want to decide what I want to see. Also, this sort of old school forum persists over time and conversations can be put back on the front burner when people want to talk.

Who am I? Just a dad in the Valley who wants us all to connect and talk.

Who else am I? I am the moderator.

What is the moderator’s purview? Rules. Follow the rules and I won’t have to moderate you.
