NHCH Calendar of Events

This calendar is a small representation of opportunities that are occurring within the NHCH community. Most of these items listed below are events that NHCH directly sponsors. Events are added throughout the year. E-mail is the primary way that detailed information is disseminated to members about these and other happenings. Members frequently post e-mails that share additional opportunities that they have set up, know about through other venues and so forth. These are often not posted to the calendar for various reasons. Only members are able to send and receive e-mails to NHCH's e-lists. Also check the Area Resources and Contacts sections for contact information about many things that are occurring for homeschoolers.

Events posted below are subject to change. Further details for these and other events will be posted to the NHCH email list.

Event registration generally begins 4 to 6 weeks prior to each event, as posted to the NHCH email list.

Due to high demand, reservations for NHCH field trips are granted on a "first-come, first-served" basis, with priority given to NHCH members.

If you have any other questions or comments, please send them to info@nhchweb.org.
