People clip coupons to save thirty cents on a supermarket item but will not visit a lawyer to save thirty thousand dollars in Asset Protection from Medicaid. Why? Because they are familiar with one and unfamiliar with the other. The purpose of this talk is to make you familiar with the many ways to save big money through ordinary legal maneuvering.
Celebrating makers of all types and ages! Come learn how you can be a maker too!
Lots of workshops and events including many community partners.

Abraham Lincoln – A personal perspective of one of America’s Greatest Presidents
In commemoration of Lincoln’s birth on Feb. 12th, 1809, Mr. Holden will give a special presentation with photos, Lincoln books, and objects about President Lincoln, his life and Presidency, ending in his tragic assassination in April of 1865.
Several movie clips will be shown demonstrating how we have come to look at this great man in so many different ways since the early 20th century.
