Located about 60 miles northeast<br />
of Los Angeles, the <strong>Antelope</strong> <strong>Valley</strong><br />
sprawls over 1000 square miles of<br />
the part of the Mojave that is called<br />
the “High Desert,” and is home to<br />
over 350,000 people.<br />
The <strong>Antelope</strong> <strong>Valley</strong><br />
The <strong>Antelope</strong> <strong>Valley</strong> is also<br />
the home of the Space Shuttle,<br />
SR-71, F117, B1 and B2 airplanes,<br />
the Lockheed “Skunkworks” and<br />
Edwards Air Force Base, home of<br />
the first supersonic flight, and various<br />
other aeronautical firsts and<br />
records, as partially chronicled in<br />
“The Right Stuff”; a major aviation<br />
research and testing center.<br />
It is also home of the California<br />
Poppy Reserve, where the City of<br />
Lancaster celebrates its Poppy<br />
Festival every April, and the highly<br />
eclectic and eccentric, yet fascinating<br />
AV Indian Museum.<br />

development by the athlete. We are extremely pleased by the<br />
academic achievements of our athletes,” says AVC Athletic<br />
Director Newton Chelette.
