This series of homeschool programs for students aged 8-12 will meet at the Visitor Center at Lake Anna State Park from 10am - 1pm on multiple dates. There is a small fee of $5 per student, per program, to be paid at the park at the time of the program. Students will be expected to bring their own lunches/snacks and refillable water bottles, as well as weather-appropriate clothing, as we will try to be outside as much as possible. Registration is done through Eventbrite and fees are collected at the Visitor Center at the time of the program.

There is no expectation to commit to the whole series of programs. Register here.
