P A R E N T S:
CBA lost its Woodbury lease due to another tenet in the building 
expanding into the former CBA space.  Our leasing agent
just informed CBA of this decision.

Therefore, this year, 2021-2022, all CBA classes will be held in St Paul.  

If you have questions please CALL or TEXT Andrew Rist at  651-210-0864
