Activity Day
Activity Day is a time when a subsection of the
group gathers (typically the first Friday of the month). Meeting
times are from 9am to 12. During this
time the students will gather in age age/grade groups and have
differentt learning sessions. These may include science, art,
literature, P.E.
Class topics vary and depend on available teachers. We will
typically have 30-40 families involved (about 100 children). This
activity does require an
extra fee to cover facility rental and materials. Activity day is
hosted at Liberty Evangelical Free Church.

some concerts
at retirement villages. Choir also requires an extra fee to cover
the costs of the director and building usage.

Field Trips
We attempt to host multiple field trips throughout
the year. We have had many succesful trips in the past to places
such as
AE Dairy, Newton Speedway, Pella Fire Station, CoLIne Mfg, etc.
Each trip will have age categories. General group membership is
all that
is required to participate in the trips.
Mom's Meetings
Mom's meetings are a support/social night that
occurs many times through the year. Mom's are highly encouraged
to attend.
Food, Fellowship and Fun are part of the evening. Our goal is to
develop relationships so that we can encourage each other on this
journey.
Curriculum Fair
Each year in the early spring we host a curriculum
fair. This event is designed to expose the group to all of the
different types of curriculum
that is being utiliized in the group. The night includes
fellowship, sharing and snacks. It is also a great event to bring
along a friend who
might be interested in homeschooling, but still has questions.
Other
Many other events are sponsored through the
year. These include multiple Father/Son, Father/Daughter events,
Family Sharing Night (talent show)
Group Picnics, and Graduation ceremony.
