| Dear Potential Class Patrons, I would like to take this opportunity to encourage
each of you to register early for our classes, trips and other activities. In
almost all cases, our ability to conduct a class is based on having eight paying
participants registered. The decision to run or not to run a program must be
made a minimum of three days prior to the advertised start of the class. This
allows us the necessary time to inform the instructor and purchase the supplies
that are needed for the class. Therefore, it is imperative that you register
early in order to assist us in making an informed decision as to whether or not
to run a particular program. Thank you in advance for your cooperation. See you
in class. |

MC-101 |
In May 1864, Federal Armies in the eastern theatre under U.S.
Grant began an all out drive to destroy the Army of Northern Virginia, commanded
by General Robert E. Lee. After bloody stalemates in the Wilderness, Grant swung
the Army of the Potomac to the east in order in get around the flank of Lee’s
army.
This deadly dance continued through June, with the battles at the North Anna
and Cold Harbor. Lee was finally brought to bay at Petersburg, where the
armies faced each other for ten months. The Federals broke through in April 1865.
Lee, in an attempt to save his army, fled west, but was eventually boxed in.
He surrendered the Army of Northern Virginia on April 12, bringing the war in
the East to an end.
This course will cover the events of the war’s last eleven months, discussing
the battles, the strategy, the overall military and political situation in the
United States and the Confederacy. |

GPS for Mariners is a modern learning experience
that focuses on the GPS equipment typically owned by the recreational boater. This
course is the result of an exciting synergy between the textbook publisher, the
book’s author, and the Coast Guard Auxiliary. Course participants
who already own hand-held GPS units should bring them to class. However, this
class is so effective that even those not possessing handheld units will learn
how to use GPS for practical recreational boating.
