What's going on - Week of 12/29/16

Each week I normally publish 2 posts - Mondays will be articles and reviews. Thursdays will be a "What's Going On" feature, in which I highlight upcoming events and ticket deadlines. 

However, lately I have been experiencing some medical difficulties that stop me from doing many activities. I will sporadically be posting local even updates, but class reviews will not return until the spring. Follow our facebook page for updates, photos, and more!

 
Join Fleet Feet for their 2 or 4 mile resolution run, and then celebrate with some champagne on 12/31/16
