Got an email today about getting a Level 2 class here in missoula, thought I'd pass it along in case anyone's interested:


We got a lot of requests for a Level 2 course in Missoula - as of now
there are 4 folks signed up for a minimum enrollment of 12. AAI will
cancel without 12 students. Please pass the word if you think anyone is
interested.

Thanks
