Running a Group

Being Part of the Homeschooling Movement – Larry & Susan Kaseman

“If you’re a homeschooler, you’re automatically a member of the homeschooling movement. There are no requirements or membership fees, but you can’t choose not to be a member either. Like it or not, if you’re a homeschooler, you’re part of the movement, and what you do affects other homeschoolers and your own future as a homeschooler.” HEM – S/O 2006

Let’s Put on an Information Night! – Carol Narigon

“Putting together a homeschool information workshop can be daunting the first time you do it. Once you’ve set one up, pulled it off, and learned whatever lessons you need to learn, it becomes much easier.” HEM – S/O 2006<

Organizing a Homeschool Convention – Sherry Stacy

I believe there is a need for more local gatherings of homeschoolers to exchange ideas, pick up tips, and encourage each other along the journey. What better way to do this than at a local convention? HEM – JF/00<

Time for Family Baseball – Earl Gary Stevens

“This has become one of our most enduring gatherings because, for five months out of the year, it is our weekly community meeting place where we chat, share snacks, fly kites, meet friends, check out the bulletin board, and even play baseball.”<
