National Lighthouse Day
Maine Lighthouse Museum
The lighthouse has been a visible part of HOME's logo from our beginning in 1990. The words "Lighting the Way for Maine Homeschoolers" speak clearly of our mission! National Lighthouse Day gives HOME an opportunity to celebrate who we are and why we are here!
