Indoor Training Start Date Postponed Until January 14

We were just notified by the city that they are having COVID related janitorial staffing issues.  As a result the city is unable to provide the required janitorial staff at the Roosevelt and Lincoln Schools for our program on January 7.
Unfortunately this means that we will have to delay the start of indoor training until January 14.  All times and locations will remain the same.
We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and look forward to seeing everyone on the 14th.
