September First Friday Event

After the talk, please discuss with Tony if you are interested in joining WMSAR.  Members meet once a month for an informative meeting.  (I learned all about dehydration and this month's star chart when I went to a meeting.)  Also, they hike once a month to an unusual place, or a place of interest, or sometimes a place inaccessible to the general public.  Classes on search and rescue are available, as well as earning your ham radio license.

Some ENMU-Ruidoso classes you might find of interest

Creative Aging syllabus below flyer.    The previous attendees keep coming back to attend another semester because: of the informative nature of the class; a lot of sharing of experiences, knowledge, and ideas between participants; AND apparently, a whole lot of fun!

NM History class is equally informative and a great price for seniors!
