“Oxford Valley Mall is proud to make a difference in the community for a third consecutive year with the Big sMall Walk,” said Jim Malervy, director of mall marketing. “The event has already raised thousands of dollars for Holy Redeemer in its first two years, and we expect the total to continue to grow as more people participate.”

Expo hosted in conjunction with 95.7 BEN-FM and powered by First National Bank of Newtown and the Simon Kidgits Club.
