It's not too late to RSVP for Access Sacramento's only Orientation Class for November on the19th at 6 p.m. at the Coloma Community Center. 

 

RSVP by calling 916-456-8600 ext. 0.

 

Access Sacramento's regularly  scheduled  Orientation Sessions change next month because of the holidays. Normally, they are held twice every month on the 2nd Tuesday and 4th Wednesday. November breaks that pattern. 

 

Orientation classes are free and open to the public. They last a little more than an hour. The orientation class is also a required step in becoming an Access Sacramento member and should be taken at your earliest convenience.   

 

The Orientation Class will give you a chance to ask questions and learn about our services and what we provide to the community and its members. We also will go over the standard classes we offer and member benefits as well as providing a tour of the radio and TV studios and digital media lab.   

 

All classes are on a first come, first serve basis so signing up right away is crucial. We hope to see you there!
