Suggest a class or workshop topic
We are always open to hearing your ideas for classes or workshops. We are particularly interested in classes that are health, safety or workforce related, and those that can be held in the outlying communities of Reedsport, Bandon, Coquille and Myrtle Point. Have an idea for a class or workshop? Let us know, and if you're qualified, you could even teach it!
