Out of Town Students

There are a number of quality hotels within 2-3 miles of our location.  They include all of the Marriott properties, Hampton Inn, Comfort Inn, Holiday Inn Express, and La Quinta.  If you are booking online, look for hotels in the "Quail Springs Shopping Center" area (northwest Oklahoma City).

I am truly excited about these classes.  I know you will enjoy them and learn an enormous amount from each one of them.  

That's it for now.....  Until next post..... Happy Creatin'!
