FALL COURSE PROPOSALS The due date for the Course Proposals for the fall 2008 term is Thursday, May 29th. Course Proposal forms are available in front of Sara’s office, at our web site or Sara will email you and form which you can then email back to her. In order to reduce confusion and the demand on Sara’s time, we are asking that every prospective leader complete the Course Proposal Form, even if you have led the same wonderful course for ages. AND that everyone give us three choices for scheduling times for their course. Scheduling is getting difficult, especially in the fall term.

PROJECT S.O.S., SEND OUR SUPPORT
Our project is now underway! Please pick up the handout near the display in the entrance hall. It lists suggested items for you to purchase for our troops. You can also deposit cash. And there are Thank You notes for purchase that will be included with the donations we ship to the Middle East. The deadline is MAY 22. Thank you for your generosity!
We are asking to please be considerate about eating in the classrooms. There have been quite a few spills on the carpets which leave stains and odors in the carpets. Thank you.
