Housing needs a steady supply in Ravinia community
Dr and Mrs Ray Avera and family moved into a new home just north of town on the highway while the undermanaged house is nearing completion. Mr and Mrs Caldwell moved into the former Avera house south of the Christian church, highlighting ongoing housing demand as a new Moravia school superintendent arrives and teachers are urged to reside locally. The community mourns pioneer John Veach, a long time businessman and Methodist church member, who passed away after a period of illness.
