Local Girl Scouts are offering technology and software classes for the area’s senior citizens.

The first class will be Saturday, Aug. 20 from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. and will cover social media, technology classes, Facebook, Skype, email, One Drive and Word basics. The second class will be Saturday, Aug. 27 from 9 – 11 a.m. and will focus solely on more advanced Word program skills, including how to formulate contact lists and mailing addresses.

The classes are free and will be held at the Hermiston Blue Mountain Community College campus in the computer labs, so there is no need to bring a computer. The Girl Scouts are offering these classes as part of their Gold Award Project, which is equivalent to a Boy Scout Eagle project.

Those interested in attending are asked to call Sofia Tello at (541) 701-8693.
