Achieve Elective #17 – A great way to spend time with your son and family is to attend a Lowe’s Build and Grow Clinic. This Saturday, September 13 from 10am-11am they are hosting a workshop to build a ship. You can register online at http://www.lowesbuildandgrow.com/. If you can’t attend, they hold other workshops during the month too. Home Depot also holds free kids workshops too. The workshops are offered on the first Saturday of each month between 9:00am and noon at all The Home Depot stores. Don’t worry if you are unable to attend, this elective can also be achieved by building a pinewood derby car early next year.
