By popular demand, our Auto Club Community Nights are now open to students 15 and older!
Register at easdcommunity.recdesk.com/Community/Program.
On January 26, we'll focus on what you should know about VIN numbers, how to check basic fluid levels, changing windshield wiper blades, jumping a car, and changing your battery. On February 2, we'll focus on all things tires! Roadside tire changes, checking and filling your tires with air, inspecting, and plugging a tire. We'll even go over what the information on the side of a tire means. At the end of this two-night course, you'll have a better understanding of basic car maintenance and take home an informational folder to look back on and refresh your knowledge.

EASD Parent Connections is seeking Volunteers for the inaugural Elkhorn Young Athletes Program!
Young Athletes is an 8-session program that provides a chance for children (ages 2 to 7 years old) with and without special needs to come together and work on pre-sport skills like jumping, balancing, throwing, and catching.
Volunteers (Middle Schoolers with a guardian, High Schoolers, and Adults) will help run our games and serve as ambassadors for the Young Athletes Program. Volunteers can sign up for as many or as few sessions as they’d like. Have a club or a group of friends looking to get involved? Sign up as a volunteer organization.
