As part of its commitment to furthering the educational interests and needs of area adults as well as visitors to our Lake from across the country, the W. E. Skelton 4-H Educational Conference Center is pleased to present its Adult Education program. Our Adult Education Program has two (2) major components:

 

  1. Elderhostel-we serve as a host site to this international program dedicated to the continuing education of adults 55 or older. Course participants from around the country visit us for our Elderhostel programs. These multi-day educational programs feature a variety of stimulating and interesting topics that vary from week to week in which meals and lodging are included in the price of registration.
  2. Adult Education Courses-serving adults from around the lake and broader region in general, our Adult Education Courses typically feature local instructors and topics that serve the needs of adults in our community. Topics may include a variety of classes including introduction to computers, digital photography, "antiquing", Cooking with Jason, and much more. Additionally, we are fortunate to partner with Ferrum College to offer continuing education courses in areas such as drawing, painting, water color, and more!
