 Me Too I and II

This is a class especially designed for our future generation of boys and girls with a unique look at manners, good hygiene, and presentation skills. If you would like to see your son or daughter become a perfect little lady or gentleman, this class will help. Me Too begins with an introduction of oneself and then moves forward to manners, social skills, and politeness. Your child will begin a healthy awareness and bring a greater sunshine to his/her surroundings. The class is for children, ages 4 — 5, at the Recreation Center, and will be held each Thursday, beginning June 6 — 27. Class time is 5 — 5:45 p.m. and the instructor will be Bernetha Mouzon. The cost for the class will be $75 per student. For more information, contact Neely Hand at (770) 924-7768.

Excellence I and II

The Recreation Center has developed a class for young ladies, ages 6 — 16, to enhance the creativity and goals of each girl. The Excellence I and II classes are designed to emphasize ladylike skills and morals for the students. The class will introduce each girl to excellence through posture, poise, and presentation. The focus of the workshop is to develop a healthy disposition and attitude. The classes will be held each Thursday, beginning June 6 — 27, time is 6 — 6:45 p.m., and cost will be $75 per student. The classes will be held at the Recreation Center and the instructor is Bernetha Mouzon. For more information, call Neely Hand at (770) 924-7768.

Indoor/Outdoor Yard Sale

The Recreation Center will become one giant yard sale on Saturday, June 8 from 9 a.m. — 4 p.m. This is a great opportunity to sell some of the things you no longer use. Bring your tables, chairs, games, books, clothes, and anything your might like to be free of taking up space at your home. The funds raised will go to new programs and equipment for CRPA.
