Step Up for Valdese was formed by a group of residents who care deeply about our town and want to preserve the friendly, small-town charm that makes Valdese special.

We are proud to endorse candidates who embody the values we believe will keep Valdese moving forward: (do we use the over?)

  • Respect
  • Progress
  • Listening
  • Service

Let’s step up together—for community, for collaboration, and for a better Valdese.
