My availability is very sporadic so its hard for me to get a start. I would love to drop by the class or one of the classes every so often but I dont think that is how the guys structure it so I will just have to wait until my work load and family duties subside enough for me to make some time. I have 2 things to choose from and my golf on sundays takes first place unfortunatly.

I hope you enjoy the class and get a lot from it. It sounds great from what others have said.

Hi Paul
Give Clinton a call and he will give you all the info you need. Classes start this week.
Usually starting in second semester is OK

Thursday night I think is 1st year class, but Clinton will be able to confirm for you
