Must have at least 12 attendees per class. If your group does not reach the maximum 12 attendees, we highly encourage inviting participants from neighboring communities to achieve the class capacity and subsequently share the associated costs. While we remain open to conducting the class for less than 12 attendees, we regret to inform you that we will be unable to reduce the fee for the class.
