Please Note: There is limited available slots for this workshop to ensure that each participant gets adequate one-on-one instruction. Since there is plenty of interest in these types of workshops, we ask that you only sign up if you have serious intentions of participating.
In order to accommodate as many participants that we can, we ask that if you are unable to attend after signing up, please let us know 48 hours prior, so that we can fill the slot with someone from the waiting list.
If you wish to be placed on a standby list, please email Craig Gerry directly ([email protected]) with a telephone number to be contacted if there is an opening.
