Take your dog training to the next level! This class is the American Kennel Club (AKC)'s Canine Good Citizen® (CGC) Program in conjunction with the AKC Trick Dog Novice (TKN) class. You and your dog have the opportunity to earn two titles! CGC is a program designed to reward dogs who have good manners at home and in the community. You will learn and practice all ten steps required to pass the CGC test. Do you and your dog love to be the life of the party by showing off your arsenal of tricks? Then they might be perfectly primed to earn AKC Trick Dog titles! There are five AKC Trick Titles you and your dog can earn. This class focuses on TKN. All it takes is 5 Novice tricks (CGC + 5) to earn the Novice title. On the last day of class, we will do both tests. If you and your dog pass all ten steps and perform all 5 tricks, then you will qualify to request two titles from the AKC. Any breed or mixed breed can receive the CGC and TKN titles and your dog does not need to be registered with the AKC. There is no age limit to take this class. However, all dogs must have attended a local obedience class. Please bring dogs and proof of vaccine to the first class.

Have you always wanted to play the violin, viola, or cello but never had the chance? Now’s the time! In this welcoming beginner group, you’ll learn the fundamentals of playing your instrument, reading music, and performing with others in a supportive environment. A basic understanding of how to read sheet music is helpful but not required—enthusiasm and curiosity are all you need. This class is also a great fit if you’ve taken a long break and want a gentle refresher before joining the returning players group.

Have you played the violin, viola, or cello before but taken a break? This class is the perfect way to rediscover your love of music! Dust off your instrument and join a supportive group of adult musicians as you refresh your technique, rebuild confidence, and enjoy playing together again. Participants should have prior experience reading sheet music and basic proficiency on their instrument, as this class will focus on ensemble playing and musical expression. If the instructor feels you would benefit from additional review, you may be encouraged to transfer to the Beginner Players class for a better learning experience.
