So we'd like to offer to house you in the home of a local homeschooling family. Please contact INCH at hosthomes@inch.org if you'd like free accommodations on Thursday night. We need to know as soon as possible if you're interested in this option so we can make the necessary arrangements. (Tell us how many, any preferences, allergies, etc.) Discount hotel rates have also been negotiated and details are found at 'Accommodations' under the Convention tab on the inch.org website.
