1. Monday, Feb. 25 at 6:00-7:30ish pm we will be doing a "healthy heart" and germ/hand washing clinic at an after-school tutoring program in Detroit. City Mission, 20405 Schoolcraft Detroit, MI 48223, www.city-mission.org - volunteers needed to help with the presentation. There will be two groups of about 15 kids, so we will do two presentations, it'll be fun and we get to hang out with the kids afterwards and answer any questions they may have!!! If anybody had done this presentation before for a class project we would love your help!
