Final Comments: 
This is the lower grade side of the same program. Brittney will be doing a shorter craft with ages Kindergarten - 3rd grade and Ryn will have 4th and up on the other side of the room doing an older craft. Because of the space and supplies needed for each and the different lengths of time needed, we are registering them as two separate programs. They will be marketed together.
