Club Classes and Shop Sessions
OPLC provides instructional classes and open shop sessions for its members.
Class tuition and shop fees are charged to help defray equipment and facilities
expenses. Time punch cards are available from class instructors/open shop
monitors providing a discount to regular users of club equipment and facilities.
Any member in good standing can sign up for any class. OPLC classes are
not open to non-members. However, anyone can join the club and take a class
immediately, there is no waiting period. There are sign-up sheets on the
bulletin board in the club house. To sign up for a class put your name and
phone number on the sheet for the class(es) you want to take.
Classes are usually held whenever at least four people have signed up
for a class and an instructor is available. The instructor determines the
class size. All the classes are held on a prepaid basis. If paying by check
the check should be made out to OPLC. Please indicate the class in the memo
area on your check. Payment should be given or to the class instructor.
They will give you a receipt for the payment.
If there's a subject you'd like to see taught, contact our class coordinator.
Instructors are needed in order for classes to be taught. You don't need
to be an expert to be an OPLC instructor. All that's needed is some knowledge
about what you are teaching and a desire to help somebody else. If you are
able to teach a class, please contact our class coordinator. We guarantee
you'll have eager students and no discipline problems!
