Sponsor A Class
The most effective (and quickest) way to present your product(s), services, or course to the community is to sponsor the (cost to rent) community room and offer the course to the community for free. The basic hourly rate is $25/hour and you can reserve the Community Room any time it is available.
Submit A Proposal
