Currently the Teen Zine Club is our ongoing class. Thursdays after school. The kids just made Issue 1 of thier new zine "Emotions for Gummies" and we are all having a great time. Upcoming:

A second group of TEEN ZINE will be forming in January 2009! Capacity is 8 kids, age 12-15. Once I hear from 4 kids who want to sign up, I can start the class. Right now the current Teen Zine club has room for one or two kids. Please let me know if you are interested, it isnt too late to join.

Printshop plans are still in the works. An extra special thanks to all who came to the Clothing Swap Fundraiser... and if you missed it, keep your eyes peeled for another one upcoming! Extra extra special thanks to Thea from the RandomTaskEngineer.com. Go check her business out. She does random tasks for you. She made the clothing swap be the most relaxed, easy , fun event Slumgullion has ever had. How wonderful! Thanks Thea!
