Rose Valley is undeniably a special place to many people. The reasons why are seldom a single fact or a simple story. But all would agree we must sustain our beautiful environment, our rich history, our unique sense of community, and our unparalleled level of public participation. The Rose Valley Centennial Foundation is a 501 (c) 3 corporation that was established in 2013 to do just that. Please join us in that mission.

Only in Rose Valley will you see a street sign on a PennDOT highway that politely invites drivers to join local residents in observing a slower speed limit.
