Shantel's understanding of these complex topics came early in life when her husband was injured during his deployment in Iraq. Earning a purple heart in his early 20s, Shantel was forced to navigate the VA (Veterans Affairs), Social Security disability, and Medicare, often ending confused and frustrated. She believes that no one should have face difficulties alone. This awareness has led to her becoming passionate about educating clients to understand their rights and options.

From Japan, Aikido is the only martial art of nonviolence. It is based on a philosophy of restoring peace and harmony to a confrontation. Over 9 sessions you will learn how Aikido uses non-violent techniques, physical and mental, to attain harmony.

Our tour includes one acre of garden and greenhouse areas. The Trial Gardens at the University of Georgia evaluate the newest ornamental plants from top breeding companies located around the world. We are the “go-to” garden in the arena of testing plants for adaptability to heat and humidity. Tucked away on UGA's South Campus, our garden is a perfect place to escape and take a breather from the hustle-and-bustle of everyday life. We have shaded benches and a gazebo in the center of the garden.

Some people call geocaching "a game using million dollar satellites to find Tupperware in the woods." Perhaps it's an accurate description, but it is also so much more than that. This class will explore the growth and scope of geocaching along with "how to," with an emphasis on novices and total beginners, to perhaps find out what you are missing. If you own a smart phone, you too can geocache.

For several years Linda has been assisting with research for the Historic Atlas of Oglethorpe County. She was amazed to learn how important its contributions were to the early state of Georgia. The last Royal Governor of Georgia, James Wright, negotiated a treaty with the Cherokee and the Creek to give up land in exchange for forgiveness of their debts. This treaty, known as the Augusta Treaty of 1773, encompassed part of what is now Oglethorpe County. Oglethorpe's importance continued until the fall of "King Cotton."

Indian cuisine is diverse, fresh and flavorful, and not very well understood in the U.S. In this lecture, Nupur will transport you to India with a slideshow featuring pictures and stories that illustrate seven aspects of Indian cooking, for instance, how Indian home cooking is different from Indian restaurant food, and what Indian cooking can bring to your own home kitchen. You will learn how to make a cup of authentic chai and enjoy your chai with a selection of snacks and sweets, just as you would if you were a guest in an Indian home.
