"ADVENTURES IN LEARNING"
Registration Coming in January

"Adventures in Learning" is our cornerstone program because we never stop learning. 

SCT offers 2 - 4 classes on four Friday mornings in March, May, August, and October.  Participants may choose to attend two classes and sign up for refreshments each Friday.  Refreshments are provided compliments of one of our Community Partners.

"Adventures in Learning" is a time for learning, socializing, and catching up on what's happening at SCT.  You will have an opportunity to meet other members as well as learn more about our community partners.
