Spruce Creek Team 2152 - SMASH Moodle, blog .net

Right now we will be meeting 4 days a week from noon until 4:00 or 5:00 (Friday may be later). One day each week we will be meeting from 8:30 a.m. to 11 a.m. and again from 2:45 to 4:00 or 5:00. The days may change each week depending on curriculum we need to cover. We will probably meet from 9 to whenever on Saturdays. I am trying to avoid Sunday until the last couple of weeks.
