SUMMARY:Identifying and Managing Northern Trees and Shrubs (Not All Evergreens are Pines!)
DESCRIPTION:Not all evergreens are pines! Besides learning to identify northern trees and shrubs\, you’ll learn where they grow and why they grow there\, plus how to manage them on your property\, and which ones are good for wildlife. \nOn the first day\, learn about basic tree and shrub identification (for example\, opposite versus branching leaves). You’ll put your newfound knowledge into practice on some of the shrubs outside the Mercer Library. \nOn the second day\, class will meet at the Mercer Library and then head out to look at trees on Chris’s property out on County J. This field trip will include an easy\, one mile\, mowed trail that will be walked. The field trip will take place rain or shine (unless it’s a thunderstorm)\, so come prepared to be outdoors! \nInstructors: Chris Paulik and Chad McGrath \nOffline Registration: Download PDF Registration Form\, complete and mail in. \nRegistration Questions? Contact us or call (715) 862-0201 or (715) 892-3982.

SUMMARY:Doing Music From the Inside Out 101 (Level 1)
DESCRIPTION:This class is designed to give the adult beginning/inexperienced musician opportunities to engage with music\, and to actually play some music\, too. \nRequirements:  \n– NO MUSIC READING & NO EXPERIENCE NECESSARY (…or memory of such). \n– Curiosity and a sense of humor! \n– A functional/playable acoustic (non-amplified) guitar. Fe staff can help those who may need to find a guitar to rent. \n– Instructor will provide African hand drums & percussion instruments. \n–  Take notes as individuals prefer. \nThis is a hands-on music offering both for those who miss their past days in music as well as individuals who never pursued learning to “do music” but find themselves wishing for a do-over. \nThroughout our four 2-hour meetings\, we will cover a variety of concepts and ideas. These will be introduced organically as they emerge to be interesting and relevant to our group. While there is no limit to what we could explore\, we’ll begin with basics from which curiosity\, questions\, and enthusiasm will likely surface. The direction of following sessions will be determined by class participants’ interests; hence the title “Music from the Inside Out.” \nBeginning from the first class\, we’ll use our ears and imaginations to actually make music with guitars and hand drums/percussion Rhythm\, melody\, harmony along with newly emerging technique/skill will immerse us in organic music exploration\, listening\, and appreciation. \nNeed a guitar? Rent one for $20. Just add this to your class registration. \nPlease note that this class is limited to 8 students. \nInstructor: Rusty Wulff \nOffline Registration: Download PDF Registration Form\, complete and mail in. \nRegistration Questions? Contact us or call (715) 862-0201 or (715) 892-3982.
