If you live in or near Canton, Ohio you are probably familiar with Aultman Hospital. Aultman Hospital is near and dear to me. Both my pregnancies were risky and Aultman took good care of me and my premature boys who spent at least 3 weeks each, respectively, in the NICU. For a short time I event attended and helped out in the Preemie Support Group.
I was recently asked by a representative for Aultman College, which is located on the Aultman Hospital campus, to tell you about the following community classes they offer for boys and girls in grades 4-6th.
All of the following classes are scheduled for Monday, Wednesday and Friday June 10th, 12th and 14th from 10am – 12pm in Aultman College Room 1 for the boys and Room 2 for the girls. Cost: $49
