A few notes on upcoming events:

Job opportunity for working with kids (mostly grades 1-3). See attachment below:

I work for Stillwater Area Public Schools Community Education, and am looking for Spanish instructors to teach after-school Spanish in Stillwater Area Public Schools.  It's a part-time opportunity (up to 6 hours a week), and pays $23.58 per hour.  Applicants must have experience working with children and must know Spanish!  Would you be willing to mention this opportunity to folks in your club?  If they are interested, they can call or e-mail me for more information.  651-351-8348 

Thanks!
