Class added, two consolidated for mobile classroom


Two classes have been consolidated and another added as interest remains high in the LSU Mobile Classroom, scheduled to be in Bogalusa on Tuesday and Wednesday, July 26 and 27. The classroom will be located at Northshore Technical College and all courses are free, but space is limited.
 
Marilyn Bateman, executive director of the Bogalusa Chamber of Commerce, said persons who needed to make adjustments because of the schedule changes should call 732-6211, ext. 347.

The program is sponsored by LSU, the Louisiana Small Business Development Center, Bogalusa Chamber of Commerce, Northshore Technical College, Washington Economic Development Foundation and the City of Bogalusa and sign-up sheets are located at a number of high-traffic locations throughout the community.
