This month's special needs class in Maebashi will be on March 20th. It starts at 10:30 and ends at 11:30.

For those of us that don't drive, we meet at Maebashi station at 10am and get a ride to the location.

If you do drive and need directions, please contact me so I can pass you along to someone who can get you directions.

The class is very casual and doesn't require any preparation. The kids are a lot of fun and the sun is usually shining after class.
