Field Trips and Activities for Members

WACHE Field Trips & Events
WACHE hosts several field trips, parties, events, and get togethers throughout the year.  These events are made possible when we work together cooperatively.  We organize these events through committees.  We ask that all members who have been a part of WACHE for at least a half of a school year, participate in a committee and contribute to making these wonderful events happen at WACHE each year.  Offering a wide array of events is part of what makes WACHE so amazing – and it is the kind, generous, and selfless service of our members that makes our group what it is!

Our goal is to host at least 2 field trip opportunities each month, throughout the school year.  
Some examples of field trips we have been on include:

These events, field trips, and parties are meant to enhance your homeschool experience, and to develop and grow friendships with other homeschool students and parents.  You are never required to attend any events – but as a member, you are welcome to come to as many or as few as you like!  It’s completely up to you to utilize the group in a way that suits your family best.
