Subject: You're invited to a 'Get Ready for College' Seminar, Thursday, Richmond, VA

Everyday Education: Making time for things that matter.

 

 

 

Dear Friend, 

I just wanted to share this last-minute invitation to the college prep seminar I'm teaching tomorrow. It's one of the Home Educators of Virginia's Success Seminars, and I'll be sharing a lot of information you can use right away. These seminars are small enough that you'll be able to ask specific questions and get personal answers. So bring your questions and concerns, and let's talk! I've pasted the HEAV announcement with complete details below.

I hope to see you there. 

Blessings,

Janice Campbell

P.S. For those of you who aren't close enough to come, I'm sorry. I hope to record it and make it available from the website someday.
