Why challenge the Baraboo ordinance outlawing raising chickens in the city, especially when others had failed? Researching the issue and finding out what to do. Networking and developing grassroots support. Enlisting others to help make the case before a public hearing. Using the media to gain support. Effective ways of interacting with both supporters and opponents in person and in writing.

Did you know speed skating has earned 75 Olympic medals for the US, the most of any winter sport? Join a Category 1 speed skater who’s also a homeschooling teen while he explains the nuances of the sport, shows photographs, demonstrates the skate sharpening process, exhibits a skater’s tools of the trade, looks into the social aspects of the sport, describes how homeschooling has enabled his speed skating career, and answers your questions.

Teens share their homeschooling experiences, some of what they’ve studied and done, and how they feel about it.
