I am interested in your Intermediate class. Of the two times, Friday mornings would work best.

Don,
I will pencil you in for that class, but we also need you to come in and pay, in order to confirm your spot. See you soon.

Will you be running these again in the winter? I am interested in registering my son (gr10) for the novice class
