Staff Corner
Our March weather may pull its usual tricks. Don't forget to check for potential closings in bad weather. We have all the inclement weather contact information in one handy place for you on our website. Also, you can now sign up as a guest to receive text message emergency alerts from Mason at alert.gmu.edu.
We staff the office Monday-Friday from 10 A.M. to 2 P.M, excluding posted holidays which can be found on our calendar. Please contact us ahead of time if you require a face to face meeting. To reach us, call 703-228-2144 or email.

Connecting Friends with Encore Learning
We're often referred to as the "best kept secret in Arlington." New members join mostly because they hear about Encore Learning from a friend.
When joining online, new members may enter a "Referred by" name. We look forward to thanking you here in the newsletter - see below.
Bring friends to our
"Encore Learning Presents" series at Arlington Central Library. These lectures and films are open to the public and a great way for prospective members to learn more about us. Details can always be found in our list of upcoming
Special Events.
Share on social media. When you simply like our Facebook page or share our Facebook posts and events to your social network, it's a huge help.

Photos, Photos, Photos...
We all love looking at them and it seems we can never get enough here in the office. Please share your photos of Encore Learning activities with us. The higher the resolution of the photo, the better (1 MB or higher). Shots taken on your mobile phone are great! Just email them to us and if we use your photos, we will make sure to acknowledge you as the photographer. We can't use thumbnails, though, so please check your photo size settings prior to emailing.
