Community Education

We're always looking for people to share their talents with the community. Do you have an interesting hobby or skill you'd like to teach others? No teaching degree required, just the enthusiasm to share it with others. Give us a call and we'll talk!! Applications to teach are available in Adobe Acrobat Reader, Microsoft Word, and in Web page HTML formats.
