Yay!  See you there.
Hey, I was wondering:
Does Freeskool have a "tuition exchange" policy with other educational
organizations?
 (That is, do you think they'd cross-post announcements for free classes
like Cascadia Wild's Monday night series?)
How do I ask "them" about it?  Is there an email posting list for Freeskool,
or is it strictly posters-around-town?

Looking forward to seeing you Monday night.

Yours,
Erica
