At least two men are regular attendees, so bring neighbors and friends of any persuasion.
January 5th class was cancelled because of threatening weather (and a broken copy machine) but on the 19th we will be re-scheduling "Illumination: When the Electricity Fails" - - everyone is encouraged to bring a lighting device that doesn't require electric power. The following class will be "First Aid In The Home: Training and Supplies" on the first Tuesday in February.
