    I had contracted to teach two classes at Lassen College in northern
    California. Both were canceled at extremely short notice, even
    though they California. Both were canceled at extremely short notice,
    even though theywere filled. A few of those Lassen students who have
    been in direct contact with me (I was never given a complete list)
    have decided to take me up on my offer to teach the same Basic Hand
    Engraving class right here at my studios. I am doing this for half
    my normal private class fee - for several reasons. I feel that the
    students were treated badly - with only two weeks or less notice.
    Students will have higher expenses for lodging here in Stockton than
    they would have had staying in the college dorms. Both the students
    and myself had already reserved this time slot so we might as well
    get some use out of it. Hopefully this way, a few will still be able
    to make good use of their vacation time... This class was to have run
    for the two week time period starting July 9th and ending July 20th. 

    I will teach the exact same material that was to be covered at
    Lassen 80" but concentrated into a one week long workshop. 

    I have space for up to 12 students, and this one-time only offer is
    open to those students who were signed up for Lassen (they get first
    preference) as well as any Orchidians I can fit in at the last
    moment. Cost will be $375, This will include printed notes, design
    transfers, practice plates, and 4 graver blanks. Optional projects,
    knives, sterling keychains, moneyclips, etc. will be available for
    those who wish to purchase them. I realize this is very short notice,
    the reason is explained above but it could be a very economical
    opportunity for the several hundred Orchidians who live in California
    or one of the neighboring states Please call or email immediately if
    you are interested in reserving a space, we start at 8:00 am next
    Monday July 16th and end on Friday July 20th. 8 to 10 hours per day.

    Others who teach, learn from this. Write YOUR contracts to include a
    clause protecting you from short-notice cancellations. In the
    future, I will be paid in full if the class is canceled less than 30
    days from the starting date. If colleges or institutions don't want
    to sign, I don't want to schedule the time, prepare for the class,
    and package all of my equipment to go. I get to unpack it all
    tonight.
