Classes for Summer 2008
PLEASE READ THIS BEFORE REGISTERING FOR CLASSES
     Classes at the Lapham Community Center are open to all adult New Canaan residents. People planning to take classes at Lapham Center should register as soon as possible; lotteries for oversubscribed classes will be held at noon on Wednesday, May 21. Registration for all other courses will go on until classes are filled. Registration can be brought in, or mailed, to P.O. Box 83, New Canaan. Please register even for classes that charge no fee. We can only take telephone registration for free classes. Call Nancy at 594-3620 if you have questions.
     For some classes people aged 60 and over pay a lower fee [under 60 fee indicated in brackets]. Scholarships are available; contact Lyn Bond at 594-3620. Unless otherwise indicated, checks should be made payable to "Town of New Canaan" and sent to P. O. Box 83, New Canaan.
     We understand that some people may not be available for a three month course. In those cases we will try to let participants sign up by the month. Our policy will be to first enroll people who want the whole period and then accommodate as many "part-timers" as possible. As always, fees will be pro-rated. See Nancy for details.
