to announce our new online reservation system that will be up and running this week!  We are so thankful that our Saturday class’s are becoming more popular each week.  However, with the increase in happy customers come some (good) challenges.  Our class’s have been SOLD OUT for the past 6 weeks.  This told us we needed a better way to keep track of our registrations.

Keeping Track…

of who is registered, who paid, and how many seats are left will be easy with our new system.  You will soon be able to see all of our upcoming events including Saturday class’s, Camps, Birthday party availability all in one place!

The best part…

is you will see online if there are are any seats available and how many.  Even if a class is full you will have an opportunity to place yourself on a waiting list.  Once you register for a class or a series of class’s you will be able to look at the description of the upcoming class to see exactly what’s coming.
