Hurt Review

We need to turn in the List of names to Hurst. The date is tentative for early June, like first week. If we get enough sign-ups (we need 20) it will be held at Delta. The fee is $350 for four days of review of all the core material you will need to know for the NCLEX. It is $50 to reserve your spot, paid online. The balance will be due on the first day of the review. If anyone has any questions please feel free to call me with any question. It sounds like a great program. Also, you can take the review as many times as you want up to two years after graduation. Also, they have a money back guarantee. If you fail the NCLEX, they will refund your money! You can't beat that!

Thanks Everyone,

Volunteering: May 6th and 7th, 2010

Hello all! Here are some pictures from the SNA volunteer events last week. First, we served dinner at the Gospel Center Rescue Mission. Don't we look pretty in our hair nets?





Second, we organized a Mother's Day craft for the ladies at Family Ties and their children to do together. They had so much fun! Here's a picture of our group with one of the counselors from Recovery House:



A huge THANK YOU to all those who came out! We appreciate your time, especially as the semester is coming to a close.
