The Learning Center gets a remodel!
We are happy to announce the SCLC has a newly renovated outdoor kitchen area. The new kitchen has expanded on the original and now measures approximately double the size. This comes as a relief, as the old kitchen was becoming too small to accommodate all the students as the cooking classes at the center have grown. One of our volunteers, Susan Drew, has generously donated an oven to the center and will be facilitating adult baking classes, slated to start in September 2018 and will run in three month segments. The classes will focus on baking basics, including learning how to bake different types of cookies, as well as incorporating individual interests of the students. Sessions will be held once a week, for three hours, and to start there will be five groups total, each with a designated day for instruction. If demand increases, the classes will expand to ten groups, maxing at out at five students per group, with classes being held twice daily.
