There is high demand for our Locals Program with numbers growing each year. Registration will be on a first come, first served basis.  Should you be interested in both lesson sets,  you will be wait-listed for the second set which can be either Set #1 or Set #2.  This is to ensure no one misses out. Once there is space available for a second set, you will be contacted by program staff.

Programs have limited space and fill quickly. Register early.
