Hi Follow Ren Center People,

 

I am looking for some help in doing my first pod cast.  Does anyone in this group have plenty of experience doing this, and are you willing to help?  How long would it take and what would be the charge?

I look forward to hearing from you!

 

All the Best,

Hi Aimee,

I do not have experience creating a podcast, but I do listen to them
and I am a general geek in the technology department.

I took a look through a few tutorials and found this one to be the most
promising.  So if you don't find anyone who can help, you may find this
useful:

Good luck with your podcast!

It's interesting, as I was just speaking with an acquaintance
about being into podcasting for my listing presentations. He is
an audacious speaker, and if you do decide to podcast, and want
to hear what it could sound like I will refer you to his site for a
sample. As a matter of fact, I might as well give it now try
http://www.nigel-brooks-voice.com. I would like your feed back.

Hello!
I'm a 1991 graduate of Renaissance. The best friends I have came out of that

technology) but I love supporting them small businesses.
I'm looking for a part time job (maybe two days a week) as an office admin.

Hi,
I am actually looking for a part-time admin.
Can you please e-mail me your resume.  Also, as a
former small business owner, you must have a lot of

Dear Nature Nurture Families and Friends,

This email is a request for help.

As many of you already know, the Playsongs'
building space is no longer open or available to us.

Nature Nurture needs a new 'home' as soon as
possible.

I've been doing a lot of research, connecting
with
many people and organizations, (Presidio Trust,
Fort
Mason for permanent residence, Bay School, George
Lucas Center, Chrissy Field, and Craistlist to
name a
few) but have yet to come up with anything solid
on my
own.



This is what we need:

NEW SPACE FOR NATURE NURTURE:

- a sublet
- Sq. Ft:  Min. 400 to Max. 550/600
- Close to nature *
- Presidio is first choice
- 'kid-friendly' building
- away from city traffic and congestion
- easy access, free parking

If you know of anyone or anything that could help
Nature Nurture find a new home, please feel free
to
call or email the information to me, or pass my
name,
number, website along to them.  It would be very
much
appreciated !!

Thank you for any thoughts, referrals, and/or
prayers
at this time.

In the meantime, I'll keep you posted if we
change
venues from Ft. Mason Center, Bldg. C, Room 220.

Take Care,
Linda


     Linda Constant
Nature Nurture Adventure!

Honoring All Living Things,
   Including Ourselves and Others.

call this number if you need to reach me while
your child is in class).
