Organize It! -
Join us on Monday, August 13, 2007 from 6:30-8:00 pm and learn to Organize It! Back-to-school means excitement and anticipation, right? Well, it can also mean frustration and dread, as parents and children struggle to leave the summer behind and reenter a more structured lifestyle. Do something to nip this in the bud, and the entire back-to-school experience can be much more pleasant for everyone involved!
Start your school year off right! Come listen to a presentation by local Professional Organizer, Karen McGregor, and learn how to organize for back-to-school. From purchasing school supplies to developing school paper management systems to learning how to be an organized student, this program will help you pull it all together and reduce stress. Parents and students alike will benefit from the information presented! Registration is recomended.
