[Phoenix] February Weather Course

[Schloemanb at aol.com]

The message below was sent out December 19, 2006.  As of January 7,  2007 
there are only two confirmed students.  It is not practical to put on  a course 
for 6 or less.  We will hold registrations open until January 14,  but if no 
others are interested I will reschedule the course for the Fall.   Please note, 
we have to order manuals from Headquarters and it takes 3 to 4  weeks to get 
them.
