Join area homeschoolers for ice skating fun.  BHC has secured a group rate of $7/skater to include skate rental for this day.  Just let the rink know you are with BHC! If you have a teen, he or she can join BHC Teens for ice cream afterwards.

Join us for perhaps the largest valentine swap in the world!  (And…we are not exaggerating) Get creative with your valentine boxes.  There will be prizes awarded for the most creative ones! Please know that a simple box is fine for collecting a ton of greetings – no reason to not come due to lack of time to create a special box. Valentine boxes should be dropped off by 1:45 so that they are ready for valentine delivery and judging. Valentines may be delivered any time between 2:00-2:45. Please prepare at least 50 valentines to deliver! If you want to create more, that’s fine; we’ve found that 50 is about right in order to have plenty to give out. Lawn chairs and picnic blankets are encouraged for visiting in the open area at this park.  Let’s continue to show care and concern for those around us, and abide by health guidelines. For all the details visit the BHC website.

Join us for the Ultimate Field Trip adventure at the US Space & Rocket Center!  Arranged by our own school administrator. Take a look at what is all included with group admission: General Admission Davidson Center for Space Exploration Featured Exhibition ISS: Science on Orbit Rocket Park Military Park Shuttle Park G-Force Accelerator Moon Shot INTUITIVE Planetarium Tour Guide One-hour student lab (geared for grades 4/5 and might require parent assistance for younger students) Lunch will be on your own.  You can bring a lunch or eat at their onsite restaurant.  When you reserve your group admissions, let us know if you plan to bring lunch for your family – this will allow us to help the restaurant be prepared as needed to serve us. COST: $38/person ages 5 and up – includes admission, planetarium show, tour guide, student lab, and all processing fees. Ages 4 and under can attend for FREE, but they will not be allowed to participate in the student lab.  We will try to set up a place for parents and young children to explore while students are in the lab session.  AND – note that ages 3 and 4 need to wear a mask while indoors. SOME RULES FOR PARTICIPATION:   Just as astronauts brave the challenges of space, we will be facing the challenges presented by COVID-19. Due to the recent spike in COVID-19 transmissions, the U.S. Space & Rocket Center is requiring all visitors ages 3 and older wear masks inside the buildings and on simulators regardless of vaccination status. Please remember that there is an inherent risk of exposure to COVID-19 in any public place where people are present. Let’s all do our part to reduce the spread of COVID-19.         Please reserve your admission on the BHC website BEFORE February 14th!

Join us for a traditional Easter egg hunt as well as spring fun! Bring plastic eggs (with or without goodies inside) and baskets for the egg hunt, and bring a prepackaged spring treat/drink to share (or bring your own snack for your children). Teens and older students can help with egg hiding if they prefer. Dads often join us on this day too! Bring kites and sport equipment for free time. Hopefully, we will have beautiful weather, but we will meet rain or shine and hide eggs under the pavilion if needed! For those who haven’t joined us in the past, we do hide tickets in eggs to redeem for prizes after the egg hunt.  And here is our normal schedule: 1-1:30 pm – Families arrive and drop off eggs at designated area. 1:30-2 pm –  Teens/Dads hide eggs at a designated location while children play or eat. We gather in grade level groupings for the egg hunt at 2pm. For full details, visit the BHC website.
