| Shelli Vallis, Board Member – Shelli Vallis, new board member (June 2024) is a lifelong Rapid City resident, with a passion for the welfare of all animals, especially her good buddy, Cinder Ella, age 9, a black Lab/Shepherd/Staffordshire/you name it—who is a 2016 graduate of the HSBH. Shelli and her late husband, Doug, raised two daughters, who brought two great sons into their life, 10 grandkids, 2 grand dogs, 4 cats, a guinea pig, a tortoise and a hedgehog. Having donated in a variety of ways and adopted from HSBH, Shelli felt the time had come to give back at a new level of participation by joining the ongoing work of the board. |
