Ladies' Night Computer Boot Camp Offered

SANTA CLARITA ­ “Atten-hut!” “Suck in those bellies.” “Flex those fingers.” “Boot up and head out!” ­ on the Internet, that is.

You are not likely to hear these commands in the fun-filled beginning computer course offered at College of the Canyons, but you may want to say them to yourself as you get motivated to conquer the mysteries of computers and simple computer programs. You know you should take this course if you see yourself in any of the following:

• You are a closet Internet user (you hide in the closet so people won’t see you!)
• You are tired of asking your 8-year-old to retrieve e-mail and files for you off your computer,
• You don’t know the difference between Broadband and a headband,
• You don’t know the difference between a GIF and the peanut butter Jiff,
• Your mother wants digital pictures of your children by e-mail and you have no idea what she’s talking about.

Instructor Paddy Ordway is prepared to help you through these issues and many others in a class that meets from 7 to 9 p.m. on either Feb. 16 or March 5. The fee for this class is $49.

This class is one of the many “fee-based, self-supporting” educational opportunities offered by the College of the Canyons Community Extension and is not associated with the taxpayer-supported, credit classes offered by the college.
