2015 HERI Convention


Picture source:  Wikipedia

The HERI (Home Education Resources and Information) Convention will be held in Jacksonville, Florida at the Prime Osborne Convention Center on July 24-25, 2015.  This convention is a great place to spend time with fellow homeschoolers, to listen to unique and encouraging presentations, and to browse through homeschooling curriculum and resources.

You can view the convention program, register and find out more information by visiting the HERI website.

R.O.C.K. Solid - Homeschool Curriculum Provider

When R.O.C.K. Solid had a physical store locally, I spent many hours pouring over curriculum there.  I loved being able to see so many different things all in one place!  They no longer have a storefront, but they have held a local "hotel show" each year since the store closed.  If you want to look over curriculum, it is a great shopping option!



This year's show will be on August 1, 2015.  You can find out more by visiting the ROCK Solid site here.

The HERI convention is back this year, and ROCK Solid always has a great booth there too!  You can check them out there on July 24-25, 2015.

Of course, you can also shop year round at the website!
