New Webinars

Neither of these societies are in our geographic area, but because these are webinar series, I thought I would share them.  Oh - they're also FREE!

Yea! We are Up and Rolling!

Alright, we are up and rolling. It took awhile for the first organization to step forward. We all know how hard it is for the first person to start something new. But once it has begun, everyone can embrace it. So now, let's start this process.

A special thank you to the Chattanooga Public Library for taking a chance and being the first major organization to open this website with a bang. Follow along with what is happening in the area through the calendar and link to the Chattanooga Public Library for what is happening with them.
