The last weekend of January promises a full schedule of events for homeschool parents and the kids. Time for great encouragement, new ideas and meeting some new friends .
Annually, Arizona Families for Home Education hosts a "mini conference" with a well-known homeschool speaker to help parents get re-energized after Christmas break.
The theme is "God Fills in the Gaps", presented by homeschooler Linda Crosby. Attendees will relax and socialize before hearing the inspiring words of Mrs. Crosby. Location: Mesa, Arizona.
AFHE also sponsors an all day leadership conference in Mesa.
"The Price is Right" features Linda Crosby as the main speaker. Designed for homeschool leaders and support group leadership teams, the day is packed with resources, legislative, lots of humor, great food and upcoming event details.
Are you wanting to attend this event, but need a place for the kids? Take them to the Rubik's Tournament.
