Final Comments: 
I know this program is past the time frame to get in Info, but I think it will still be popular with marketing materials. I would like to do this program from 9:30 to 10:30 on these days so that I have time before and after the program for setup and breakdown and also be able to work desk shift B if needed. I am also planning a Tai Chi class for ED employees so they could possibly fill in for me should I need to be gone one of these days.
