We've had a number of requests for another Babysitting Course and, trust us, we've been hoping to offer one for a number of weeks!

The problem was...the American Red Cross has been in the process of updating their Instructor-led Babysitter Training Program.

The good news? The new program is ready and will be released later in March!!

Course fees have not been announced yet, but thanks to a generous donation from the Wadena Elks Lodge #2386, if we are able to hold a course, we will be able to reduce the cost somewhat for our participating students.

Watch this space for future information and if you think you have a student who may be interested, let us know in the comments so we can see how many students to prepare for.

Thank you for your patience and understanding!!

Students learned about (and tasted!) several different types of chocolate during the Wadena-Deer Creek Community Education "Candy Making" class on Tuesday, January 28.

"The kids did an outstanding job!" exclaimed instructor Kim Hedlund.

The students also learned about the tools used in making chocolate and used plastic molds to create delicious chocolate truffles with surprises inside of them!

When they were finished, the students had several tasty treats that they could bring home to share with their families, although there's no guarantee that all of them made it that far!
