1 - THE BASICS:
Wednesday, May 17
at the Community Homeschool Center
10am-2pm - Free entry to the entire community.
All day: Ask Me Mentor Moms* - NAME TAGS
Ask Me Teens* - NAME TAGS for students ready to help, baby sit, haul, and more (Read more about that later)
www.communityhomeschoolcenter. org

*What is ASK ME? It’s any parent or teen who WANTS to help. If you have five years or more of consecutive ‘official’ homeschooling (We love you, but birth to five doesn’t ‘count’ - though it SHOULD!) you qualify to wear an ASK ME lanyard. This will give newbie moms a place to ask questions! ASK ME Teens - grab a lanyard, we’ll put to you to work - if you don’t have a lanyard, we’ll still put you to work, but you’ll maybe make some $$ if you have a lanyard so you can baby-sit! 
 
All books and curricula will be organized by subject, thus, each seller does NOT have to man your own table..
