Week beginning July 8

We hope everybody had a bang-up time on the Fourth of July. We have a number of popular classes to teach this coming week. Mel will kick of the week with Intermediate Photo Editing on Monday Morning. On Monday afternoon, Steve has a sold out “Scanning and Organizing” class. Tuesday afternoon we offer the second section of Boot Camp. Gene introduces students to Word Processing (Word Pad) and Email. On Thursday, Herb and I are introducing a new course about the Control Panel in which students will be doing a number of hands-on exercises for the first time.


We  hope you will be rested up from this week’s fireworks, and we hope to see you there.

Happy 4th of July!

Happy Fourth of July! We start another section of Boot Camp on Tuesday next week. This is the class where we introduce students to navigation and mousing.   We are teaching Flash Drives, which is always a busy and well-appreciated class. 

Thursday is a holiday, but we will be open on Friday for Open Lab.
