Homeschool Masquerade Ball

Homeschool Masquerade Ball is a formal event for homeschooled teens all across NJ. As the name states it is actually a Ball! A great reason to get dressed up an have fun with friends. Do not be scared off by the formality of the event, most kids don’t come as dates, but more just as a group of friends. All the participants have to be masked. Throughout the night they have dinner, dancing, and then a great unmasking. Many kids get very creative with their costumes. There is a great website for the event that has a whole bunch of information about it. You can see it here: Homeschool Masquerade Ball Website.
