New Adventures in Learning provides programs to local organizations and clubs about lifelong learning opportunities in the Southeast Valley. The Speakers Bureau, led by Tony Contrabasso with the participation of Joan Frank and Sharon Felts, can bring a presentation to any interested group. The talk, along with handouts, will share information about current and upcoming classes, membership and opportunities to volunteer within New Adventures. The classes themselves occur, for the most part, at the Sun Lakes Center at the corner of Alma School and Riggs Roads, 25105 S. Alma School Road, Sun Lakes, AZ 85248. Wayne Wright, president of New Adventures’ Governing Council, says, “Tony’s Speakers Bureau would be glad to present an enthusiastic program to your group and answer all your questions about lifelong learning and its advantages.” Contact Wayne Wright at [email protected] to set up a presentation.
