    Hi, I found out about your seminar on line and if possible would like to come. Are there still opening? Can I get in the dorm? What classes are open? I’ll gladly send in the registration if I can. Tried to email a Carolyn Poe 2 days ago and haven’t heard anything, worried as I saw the final day of acceptance. Thank you ,Sandy Jeffers
