Mercer Free School's Blog – Community. Freedom. Learning.

On June 12, there will be three activities held at the Ewing Branch of the Mercer County Library System.  These are Bike Maintenance (10:00-11:30am), Calligraphy (1:00-2:30pm), and Meditation Group (2:00-3:00pm).  So, this seems to be a good occasion for some of us to get together.  The current plan is as follows:

• Date/Time: Saturday, June 12, 2010/11:45am-12:45pm
• Place: Near the picnic bench outside the Ewing Branch of Mercer County Library System (If the weather is bad, we can go to a pizzeria, Villa Rosa, in the strip mall down the street.)  [map]
• Invited: Facilitators, participants, and whoever interested in Mercer Free School

Due to the nature of the school, we are unable to provide food/drink.  However, there are a pizzeria and some other restaurants in the strip mall [map].  So, if desired, one can get her/his lunch within a few minutes of walk.  If you have a question, please send us email.

Please join us!

Mercer Free School (formerly Ewing Free School) was launched in March 2010 to provide the local community in/near Mercer County, NJ a means to share self-motivated learning experience for free. As long as no space/safety/regulatory issues are involved, anyone can facilitate activities and anyone can participate in them. In addition, the school has no physical space and absolutely no budget. Furthermore, it is a “free” school also in the sense that it is not controlled by obligation or the will of another.
