Diving Guests
This is where the majority of our divers sign up. These 90-minute classes are great for kids with some experience in summer diving, trampoline, gymnastics or dance. This is also the correct class for kids age 10 and older who are comfortable in deep water, motivated to learn about the diving, and who would otherwise feel uncomfortable in a Lesson class with little kids.

Cooking Skills I
Age 21 & Up: The idea for this class came from the fact that I receive countless questions all the time from friends, relatives and acquaintances concerning, 'How do I cook with wine, white (or red) wine in particular.'? So I did some research and found that we could easily prepare a class featuring wines with a discussion on how to select the wines to cook with, how to pair the wines to drink with the selected recipe, and more importantly, how to accomplish all of this without 'busting the budget.' Recipes for this class are all brand new and include Fish, Clams and Mussels with White Wine and Garlic; Braised Chicken Legs with White Wine, Bacon, Cipolline Onions & Mushrooms; and the rst recipe ever in one of our classes to feature Pork Belly. This is the newest 'fad' ingredient in the cooking world; and we'll make 'Cochinitos'; Caramel and Chili Glazed Pork Belly like Emeril's south Florida restaurant. In this class we'll have at least 9 of the best bets for wine to cook with along with the matching recipes. Remember, in these classes we cook, clean up, then taste the three foods, each with the three paired wines. Take home recipes and extensive wine notes provided. $25 food and wine fee due instructor at class time.

Meditation
Introduction to Mindfulness Meditation
Ages 18 & Up: Mindfulness meditation is ideal for cultivating greater awareness of the unity of mind and body. The practice works by helping students to achieve a better understanding of what is happening right now-whether positive, negative or neutral-not what they want to happen or what they think should be happening. Mindfulness meditation helps practitioners stop worrying about forces not under their control. Indeed, we learn that the idea of control is an illusion. We will use mindfulness techniques including full body scan, seated meditation, walking meditation and even eating meditation to give students an introduction to the possibilities inherent in these techniques.

This bench is dedicated to the memory of a beloved family member who spent countless hours in this park appreciating the serenity and enjoying nature. Stan walked his dog here and watched his grandchildren play on the playground. This was one of Stans favorite places and now this bench reminds us of the time he enjoyed here. The Montgomery Parks Foundation can help you honor or memorialize people you love, admire, respect or miss in your life. Your dedication can acknowledge a special birthday, mark a life milestone or create a place of importance for your family.
