Want to take some courses

[Marty McFly]

I have no job or school now and really want to take some group classes (languages, cooking, wine, whatever) so I can stay busy/meet new people and stuff. I know there are community classes through the SLC school district but I think they only happen in the spring. Any ideas where I can do this during the rest of the year?

Community classes will happen all year, most like.

In particular, community colleges often offer courses on cooking, dancing, and similar semi-social things.

Continuing ed at the U?

Good question, I'll ask around. I'm also interested in other people's responses.

Thanksgiving Point near point of the mountain offers cooking classes all year round.

Harmons and Sur La Table both offer cooking classes...if you're interested in that sort of thing. They're kind of pricey and you'd have to drive pretty far to get to the Harmons. I took one class there and thought it was enjoyable. Won't pay that much again, though.

I want to try to take other classes. It's hard to meet new people once you're finished with school.

I hear there is a poker course being offered at Gameface's house.

do you folks have "Meet-Up" around you? It's sort of like a Craigslist for interests, and groups meet in public places.

also, in addition to local community colleges, check with the local park district - - they often offer lots of various activities for all ages, not just the under 14 age group.

Take some fly tying classes. The Harmon's cooking classes are awesome.
