Finance 101 for Kids (Ages 10-14 yrs)

Have you ever considered that there exists no formal education when it comes to money and finances? Our schools teach our kids everything from math and science to music and art; yet there is no program or even a single course dedicated to teaching our kids how to handle money, how to save, or how to earn money. Yet, the ability to manage money from the early age provides a foundation for a prosperous future. This class fills the void left by our school system. Your child will learn all about finances in a fun, playful environment. By the end of the class they will know the basics of the U.S. financial system, ways to save money, and ways to make their money work for them.

It starts off by introducing the core programming concepts, such as variables, statements, loops, and expressions. It then gradually builds up to more advanced tasks, such as building basic projects and games. Learning to code is easier if you are having a great time, so we’ve tried to make this class as much fun as possible! Material fee of $20 payable to instructor at first class.

Dog Obedience — Beginning (Ages 18 yrs+)

Beginning: In this class your dog is taught sit, down, stay, come, heel, and easy (walking nicely at the end of the leash without pulling). The dog is taught to move freely and easily with the collar, so one day you barely have to use it. The dog is also taught to perform things and to willingly do or not do things, not just be prevented from doing them. Verbal and/or physical praise from owner is given, which 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. Intermediate: This class will instruct students in off-leash control. This is done with the addition of a 30-foot long line. You will need a 6-foot leather leash for both classes. ALL dogs must have current rabies/distemper vaccinations and be a minimum of 4-months old. Special nylon choke collar included in fee. Children 11 years and up are welcome to attend class with a registered parent.

Exercise is an important part of the health and wellness of seniors. It helps increase your metabolism, energy levels, and alertness. Research shows that those suffering from chronic illness benefit from exercise even if it is done while sitting in a chair. Chair exercises are great for older adults, those with disabilities, poor balance, or anyone who has trouble standing or getting on the floor to do exercises. They are always gentle on the body and generally safe for most people to do. It is always a good idea to talk to your doctor before beginning a new exercise program, but you are not likely to injure yourself doing any of these exercises. Bring a 5 lb. dumbbell weight with you to the first class. Be sure to wear loose clothing and comfortable, supportive shoes. No cost.
