The Academy for Public Speaking
The Academy for Public Speaking teaches our youngsters that conquering the fear of public speaking early in life empowers a child and enhances the quality of his or her life. Children who are poised, comfortable, and confident in their abilities hold the key to a successful future. Watch and listen to our future leaders speak about the importance of keeping our planet Green! Our children can teach us a lot about how to save and recycle our resources so that their generation will live as well or better tomorrow because of our actions today. Let them tell you their stories and you be the judge!

Dogs on Deployment
Military members nationwide confront a multitude of problems during their careers. The last thing they need to worry about is their pet’s care during their service commitments. Dogs on Deployment is a national non-profit organization which provides an online network for service members to search for volunteers who are willing to board their pets during their owner’s service commitments. Dogs on Deployment promotes responsible, lifelong pet ownership by military pet owners by advocating for military pet owner rights, providing educational resources and granting financial assistance for military pet owners during times of emergency. Join Dogs on Deployment’s mission in changing the lives of our military members and their pets.

Canine Nosework
Canine nose work is a fun search and scenting activity inspired by working detection dogs. This activity is virtually for all dogs and people, easy to learn, and builds confidence and focus in many dogs while providing a safe way to keep dogs fit and healthy through mental and physical exercise. Your pet starts by learning to use his nose to seek out favorite toys or treats in several boxes; then, the game expands to entire rooms, exterior areas, and vehicles. As your dog grows more confident with his nose, target odors are introduced, and competition skills are taught.
