We have been happy to hear from many of you as summer planning gets underway, and expect an increase in registrations as school winds down. Just a friendly reminder that participants are signed up on a first-come, first-serve basis, and classes can fill up quickly. Because we want to serve you the best way we can, we encourage you to register as soon as possible. We have added a weekly schedule on our website to make things easier, check it out here. Cheers to summer!

Welcoming New Staff
Please join us in welcoming Aimee Vlachos, who joins our team as the Events Coordinator. During the school year, Aimee is a college professor at nearby UNE, and will be busy this summer ensuring the many events at KBIA are running smoothly. With a lengthy background in event management including working as an event coordinator for the Olympics, NASCAR Racing Circuit, and the Orlando Magic basketball team, we think she will enjoy her time here at KBIA. Her oldest son attends KBIA and she is excited to be part of the KBIA team.
