2008 FRC Museum & Community Education Expo
An educational conference for homeschooling children and their families
Join us for a weekend of American Ed-ventures and connect with other homeschooling families! Inspired by the upcoming election (and in the spirit of fun, learning and good citizenship), this year's theme highlights significant historical and scientific events from America's past that will encourage students to think of ways that they too can make a difference in our country's future.

Feedback From Past Attendeeds
We want to congratulate you on a fantastic weekend and conference you put together! The atmosphere was very pleasant. friendly and informative. As a homeschooling mom it was SO NICE to be able to "just be", letting someone else take care of my kid's interests while I sat and watched my kids with "new eyes". I also participated a lot but it was nice to see my kids in action with someone else. I couldn't get them to go asleep in our hotel room on Friday night as they recounted all of their wonderful experiences!
My kids and I had a great time, we learned a lot, I learned about some of their potential interests and we have new experiences and places awaiting us thanks to your eye - opening events. Thanks again, we look forward to visiting many of the places that gave classes those days.
Best Regards, Vaughan family
Just wanted to let you and your staff know you did a wonderful job this year. The time you spent on this really showed it was worth every dime we paid and more. I think once people hear a first hand description of how well organized this was, how wonderful the hands on presentations were, and how great the family Mardi Gras Party was they will come every year.

Just wanted to thank all of you at the FRC for providing the FRC Expo this past weekend. We had a great time. The workshops were excellent. We also had a lot of fun at the Mardi Gras party, and breakfast with Ben Franklin. Thank you for all of your hard work. We met alot of great people, this was very helpful for our family since we are new to homeschooling.
Sincerely, The Sullivan family
I just wanted to say thank you. The Museum Expo was wonderful! It was our first time attending, and we had such a good time. We hated to see it end. It was so nice to see so many homeschoolers all together like that. It definitely made us feel less "alone", and I'm sure everyone there felt the same way. My son really enjoyed the "Chess Tactics & Strategies" workshop. The instructor and his wife were such nice people, we kept finding ourselves back at their table to chat and Cheryl Melody's concert was the cherry on top. Everyone left her room smiling! You did an unbelievable job bringing all this together!

I want to thank you for a terrific job with the EXPO! My oldest son said it was his top ten most favorite events ever, so what do you know?

Just wanted to congratulate you on a successful conference and thank you for all the work you did to make the vendors comfortable. The kids and the parents were great and I enjoyed the two days. Best of luck with next year's bigger and better conference.
