Campbell River residents over 50 can get back into the classroom as the Campbell River ElderCollege gets set for fall classes.

The ElderCollege is holding a public information session today, highlighting their fall line-up of courses for students aged 50 and older.

They’ll be meeting at the North Island College Campus Bistro in Campbell River (located through the main doors, opposite the library), today from 130pm to 3pm.

Presentations and classes range from writing and birding to history and expanding financial knowledge. There are also topics on travel, using technology effectively, and more.

The courses are presented by volunteers and the modest tuition fees help to provide two $1,000 annual bursaries presented to Campbell River students in the medical field.

This is the 19th year that CREC is offering courses, and they are always looking for volunteers.
Registration for fall classes begins next Friday, September 22nd.

Find more information and course details at Campbell River ElderCollege.
