March 2017 Workshops/Clinics

March 11, 2017 - 10:00am - 4:15pm

Join us at the United Methodist Church of Rancho Cordova, 2101 Zinfandel Drive, in Rancho Cordova Saturday, March 11 from 10 a.m. – 4:15 p.m. to learn some new skills to enhance your garden railroad. These clinics are free (less materials) and are open to the public.

Our trainers are well-versed on their topics and are eager to show you how to do things. Several of our classes provide “hands-on” projects and kits will be available for those who met the ordering deadline. Extra kits may be available on-site so drop in and check the class out.

Classes with kits are open on a first-come/first-served basis to 10 participants each, and will require a payment when you show up. If you don’t show up and we don’t have anyone to take your spot, we will set your kit aside and ask you to pay for it at a later date.

“Repairing and Kitbashing Buildings” has reached the maximum number of kits currently available. Additional kits may be available on site on a first-come/first-served basis.”
