WELCOME   (Find me on Facebook at creidmac.) 
  
Week of November 28: November was an another interesting month to add to my collection.  After Breeders' Cup I went to Florida for my final visit to Calder Race Course, doing Groom Elite 201 assessment before flying to Richmond, Va and teaching three days at James River Work Center.  The week of the 14th I flew to Louisiana and taught High School Groom Elite at the Opelousas Transitional School on Tuesday. On Wednesday I met with officials of Louisiana Juvenile Justice about putting in a Second Chances High School Groom Elite program at the LJJ facility in Baker, La.  I also got to visit with my oldest son, daughter and my 5 grandkids in addition to spending a couple of nights with my Mom. I taught two in a special Trainers' Exam Prep class in Lexington and then enjoyed Thanksgiving weekend at home. I got the word out too late to get enough signed up for the New Orleans' Trainers' Exam Prep Class, so I'm spending this week in my Lexington office and will reschedule a TExP class for later in the meeting. I'll be scheduling 2012 classes in November and you can keep up with that schedule on my Google Calendar by CLICKING HERE
