Tuesday Homeschooling Community Meet-Ups

The name says most of it, but for more details, keep reading!

Every Tuesday @ 10am-3pm (loosely)
Location:  Sir John Franklin Community Center Outdoor Park 
https://maps.app.goo.gl/bVpAUoyZ63X1bQkMA
This event is weather dependent. Please join the chat for updates:
https://m.me/j/AbbgGWrt6COdTMUC/

Last spring, we reserved the fields for the meet-ups. We had to make sure to get the funds for that. We have learned, it is not necessary so this event is completely FREE!

Park amenities include play structure, swings, sandbox, wading pool, soccer fields, baseball fields, tennis court, basketball nets, benches and public washrooms. If you’re interested in an activity, bring some equipment and it’s always helpful to bring some to share.

Last year, MASH started these meet-ups with some trepidation. After a year of going strong, the community has taken it over to make it their own. We hope the homeschooling community can keep it going.

Think not what your community can do for you, but what you can do for your community. =)
