There are unschoolers in Melbourne. Check out Brevardunschooling@yahoogroups for some of the coolest families I've met. We live in Kissimmee but travel to hang with these folks. Hope to meet you soon!

Are there any unschoolers in Melbourne, Fl or Brevard County?

It's been a while since the last comment! Just to be sure...is TLC still meeting up? If they are, where can I find parents? I know most kids are at the park, while most teens meet at the library.

Oh, that's too bad :( Well, many of us also go to the PATH park day at Evelyn Greer, which is at the same time as Salvador Park on Thursdays. So if that's easier for you to get to, you can still meet us there :)

I was told at 4:00. No, I came alone. I doubt I might go again, since the bus might take me at around 4:25. I like spending at least 1 1/2 hours meeting people. Rushing is bad for me.

We generally hang out until 5:00 when the park closes. And if it's rainy and wet we go to the library there, which is where we were on Wednesday! I'm sorry we missed you! We have members who live in South Miami and Coral Gables as well as Homestead and West Kendall. Are you coming alone or with kids? I hope to meet you next time!

Sorry I couldn't meet up with the TLC crew. Some of the Salvadore Park (P.A.T.H.) people told me how it's from 2:00-4:00. I didn't get to Pinecrest until 4 twenty-something. I left work at 2:15 and the bus to Pinecrest took loooong to get to the stop.

Another thing: is anyone near the Westchester/West Miami/ Coral Gables area? I've met homeschoolers but also want to meet unschoolers near my place.

I'm thinking to start having a small group that meets in mid to north Miami since it's really tough to go to Broward but heading south is hard too. I'm thinking North Miami to Miami Beach, Miami Shores etc. Is anyone interested?

Thanks for the info. :)

Hi! Sorry, I just saw your message now. We meet at 2 p.m. in Pinecrest Gardens, which is a beautiful park in Pinecrest at the corner of 112th St and 57th Ave. It's the land that used to be Parrot Jungle before that was moved. Inside the park there is a splash-n-play, so it's good to look for us there and at the playground, both inside the park (there are signs, so you should have no problem finding both places.) The park is right next to the brand-new Pinecrest Library and actually shares a parking lot with it. Oh, here, I found a link for you: http://www.pinecrest-fl.gov/gardens.htm.
Hope to see you there!
