Also to be held in Austin, Yoga-size. This course has been enjoyed in the past and is a great way to get in shape for spring. The classes will be held on Wednesdays after school from April 22 – May 27. Pre-registration is required by April 15. Please sign-up now, as a minimum number of participants is required in order to go ahead with the classes.
Mother Goose starts on Tuesday, April 7, in the Gladstone Elementary School gym. This is a free program that focuses on literacy for pre-school children and their parents. There is no need to register for this program, just show up! Come out the first night and check it out! The program will continue to run on Tuesdays until June 9.
Also in Gladstone, the Boat Operators Safety Course. It is required for all operators of any motor craft to have this course by September 2009. The course will be held on April 20 from 6:30 – 9:30 p.m. and is being led by a certified instructor. The course is open to all those ages 10 and older. Pre-registration is required by April 13.
If you are interested in participating in for fun slo-pitch games in a family league in Gladstone, please phone the Inter-Ridge Recreation office. This would be a great opportunity for families to get active together. With enough interest, ball could be played on a regular basis.
