About the conference

Expanding Your Horizons (EYH) on the seacoast is presented by The Exeter Area General Federation of Women's Clubs, with the generous support of volunteers and corporate sponsors who believe in the advancement of women in the areas of math and science.  The conference is free to all participants.

Hands-on workshops provide young women with a “can-do” experience that is too often missing in traditional science and mathematics classes.

Parent workshops are also available.  Parent workshops include Media and Teen Culture, Over-the-Counter and Prescription Drug Abuse & Misuse, At Risk On-line and Sexting, and Resiliency in Girls.

The conference is free to all participants thanks to volunteers and corporate sponsors who believe in the advancement of women in the areas of math and science.

Find out more about the National Expanding Your Horizons Organization by going to the National EYH Website and watch a video of girls enjoying an EYH event.
