Very soon (24 hours?) I will have that set up with a link to show up coming classes. I'm not sure if it will be a layer pop-up, a window pop=up or an external link to a calendar. I am experimenting with web based calendar software. Now that I can control the class announcement, it should be easier to keep it up to date and accurate.
