This builds a relationship between owner and dog. Any specific problems you are having will be addressed and cured in class or by a lifestyle change at home. You will need a 6 foot comfortable leash.

Carpentry
Junior Fire Academy
Age 5-12 with John Tust, www.KidsCarpentry.com Since 1982 we have taught thousands of children the safe-use of woodworking with hand-tools.

Summer 2017 Activity Guide
OPTIONS
At 12:30pm all the campers in this program will meet up and be asked where they would like to go for the day. They will have a choice between the swimming at our pool (certified lifeguards on duty) or be able to continue to work on their golf skills. If they choose to swim, a counselor will bring them to the pool to play until 3:00pm. If they choose to golf, an instructor will take them back onto the course to play a round. This is a great way to put what they have learned that day to the test and at the same time fix certain areas that still need some work. Swimmers and golfers will meet up at 3:15pm for a 20-minute snack time. After snacks, it will be free time where they can relax on the deck or golf in the practice area. Location: Emerald Hills Golf Course, 938 Wilmington Way Redwood City, California 94062
