CenCal Upward Bound Programs,

As you can read below Dave Ferguson is out of state on the 17th, our
original planned date for the training, so we had to change it to later that
week to the 21st, Friday.  The only day that really works for him, before we
all go on to Thanksgiving Breaks and before Dec. 1st.
Please take note on the info below.

Upward Boundıs APR Tool/Uploading/Changes Training
Hosted by Fresno City College, in Fresno, Ca
8:30 am ­ 5 pm.  Library Conference Room
Free of cost. A resource disk will be provided.
Online updates and resources will be provided as well.

David, can you provide us with a tentative agenda if any.

Parking is relaxed on Fridayıs at FCC.  However, early arrival is strongly
encouraged, campus gets full.
Below is the link to the FCC map, we will be in the Library (Library
Conference Room). 
(main library #11 on the map link below)

Lunch, our luck, FCC is having Thanksgiving Feast Day, $8.50 includes
everything, however we need to pre-purchase these tickets, if you can email
me with a consensus of you and your program, we can talk with Ginna, FCC on
prepaying for CenCal.  Again we need to know this asap.  If we eat at 11:20
we can beat the rush, according to Ginna. Leaving campus, was our other
option will be stressful due to parking.

Up to now, Monday 11/10 we have on board to attend:
Ricardo Marmolejo, COS (1)
Blanca Sanchez, SJSU (?)
Matilda Soria & Judy Spell-Dupree, Reading & Beyond (2)
Melissa Padilla, CSUHayward (2)
Oscar Villareal, Brian Green, Jose Murrieta, Joel Ruble West Hills CC (4)
Cesar Velasquez, CSU Monterey Bay (?)
Ryan Preciado, Madera CC (?)
Gina Bearden, Fresno City College (2)
Martina Granados, CSU Fresno UB (4)
Norma Cuevas, CSU Fresno ELL UB (2)

The room fits about 40 people,, we have it half full already.. Please RSVP
as soon as you can to me directly [log in to unmask]
If this is the first time reading about this, read below for details, or
contact me directly for reservations or to add others to the list.

Thanks again guys, and its good see that we were able to get this together
in such short notice.  Also, I donıt thing FCC has the teleconference thing
to watch from your office. Fyi.
Thank you to Ginna who secured FCC library, and others who offered their
campuses for this, but being that David resides here now, it was convenient
for it to happen here.
See you at FCC on the Friday the 21st of November at 8:30, Library
conference Room.

Everything sounds good except for the date.  I won't be back from SWASAP in
Arkansas until 11/19.  It can be anytime after that date.  Sorry.
