Larkspur Neighborhood Festival 2009

Instructors and program managers again represented the college and department at the annual Larkspur Neighborhood Festival on Saturday, June 6. Hosted by the Bend Senior Center, the well-attended festival featured various types of booths, activities for children, music, line dancing, etc.

Visitors were attracted to the booth by colorful flower arrangements offered by Backyard Bouquets instructor Martha Church, information/demonstrations of Qigong by instructor Michelle Wood, and large portrait photographs from Chris Mather who will offer a portrait photography class in the fall (shown below).


Managers who manned the booth included Rachel Knox, Glenda Lantis, and Paul Stennett, who was represented by Tom McDannold. Everyone was involved with providing information about on-going classes, new offerings in the fall, along with seeking community input about courses to offer, etc.

A special thanks goes to Larry Nonemaker of Larry’s RV. Larry, who will teach a class in the Fall on RV maintenance, provided a new 26 foot trailer for our use. It made a great “booth.”
