FINANCIAL NEED & SCHEDULING CONFLICTS
The recession has hit us all hard in our pocketbooks, and many with busy schedules may be even more strapped for time than for money, so we accept partial attendance and also offer partial scholarships for those with financial constraints. Come for only a day or three days, or register for our afternoon/evening program only which starts from 3 p.m. We want you to attend! Contact Christine Olson and we will find a way to make it happen!
