Wayne: I am interested in the Google Class on Tuesdays April 26, May 3 and 10. Also the Facebook classes April 8 and 15. I am not sure how this works–the Google class, is it 3 sessions or 3 separate classes? Facebook the same?
I do want a membership.
Thanks,
Maria Higgins

Hi Lily…
I’ve forwarded your name and email to Wayne Casper, the person in charge of our Lincoln computer lab. He’ll drop you a note to let you know if there’s still room in the class. I *think* there is, but I’m not sure.

Also, you can call our Lincoln computer lab (where Wayne is) at 402.328.2202 and talk directly to Wayne or leave him a voice-mail message.

I would tell you to just “show up”, but some of our most popular classes tend to quickly fill… and so it’s always best to get registered.

Thanks for your Interest!
John Lortz (jlortz@discoverskills.com)
