Now, it's your turn: next year's Cree program

Well, people, this is technically my last week of schooling here at Blue Quills.

I go back and forth on coming back for a second year, and hope to make up my mind soon.

That said, there are many reasons why you should consider taking the program this fall. Below is more info on why the program rocks so much.

If people want still more info, just email cree@bluequills.ca. There are also printed and electronic versions of brochures and posters available for mail-out if you want to help spread the word.

ay-ay,
ekosi pitama,
Rick
