November Homeschool Days at Burton 4-H Center on Tybee Island

Burton 4-H Center in Tybee Island is offering two more special homeschool sessions in November. These overnight, environmental education programs are not only very educational, they are also FUN!

There are two different sessions offered; November 16-18 or November 20-22.

Classes are designed for students aged 5 to 17. Students will be grouped with children of similar ages for the classes or if you have a group of 10 or more, you can reserve your own private session.

The cost for adults and students over the age of six is $90 per person and includes on site lodging, classes, and meals. All children between the ages of 3 to 5 are half price, while 2 and under are free.
