BCC to Offer Wine, Computer Workshops in South County
11:15AM / Wednesday, April 01, 2009
The South County Center of Berkshire Community College in Great Barrington will offer the following workshops this spring.
“Mail Merge Using MS Word 2007 or MS Excel 2007” (WKS 098) teaches students to make large mailings easier, faster and cheaper using mail merge. Participants learn to create, sort and filter databases in MS Word tables and/or MS Excel spreadsheets to create labels and envelopes, and merge that data into one letter to create hundreds or thousands of personalized letters. The one-session class, taught by Sharon Davis, meets Saturday morning, May 9, from 8:30 to 12:30. Registration costs $45.
“Food and Wine Made Fun” (WKS 474) explores the art of matching food and wine. Participants sample savory treats and tasty pours to help unravel the not-so-mysterious world of wine and food, and learn to pair the two like a pro. The one-session class, taught by Joseph Smegal, meets Thursday evening, May 14, from 6 to 8 at Grape Finds in Great Barrington. Registration costs $30.
For more information, or to register, call BCC’s South County Center, 413-528-4521. For long distance (in Mass only), call 800-816-1233, ext. 5201 or 5202.
