Capitol Day
Thanks to our wonderful sponsors: Eagle Forum of Ohio and Malone University
Thanks for joining us for 2024 Capitol Day!
This wonderful annual event is MOVING to a new time of year… Spring 2026!
Capitol Day is a great field trip for students and teacher alike! It provides an important opportunity for home educators to better understand the legislative process in Ohio and how we can positively affect this system. This event is also a wonderful way to fulfill some of the history requirements for your school year!
Come and enjoy engaging speakers, Statehouse tours, legislative updates with Melanie Elsey, an interactive Scavenger Hunt for all our guests, giveaways and more!
We hope to see you in 2026!
