Dear Julie,

The ATT Pioneers make several devices for the Blind including 
Beep balls of
all kinds.     Check with your parks and rec department and see 
if they have
any organized beep ball teams in your area.  There are also some 
tandum bike
riding clubs around too.
 even a frisbee.
There is a beeper in the foam rubber frisbee so you can hear it 
coming and
going.

David Evans, NFBF and GD Jack.

 Hello all!

 The other day my teen age son and I were talking.  He expressed 
an
 interest in playing Frisbee with me.    I am totally clueless as 
to how I
 might be able to accomplish this.  Does anyone have any ideas?  
should we
 start looking for other outdoor activities we can do together 
instead?

 How about bad mitten?  Has anyone had any success nonvisually?  
We have a
 regular set, but I'm willing to purchase anything that would 
make it
 accessible.

 I'd also welcome any other ideas for family friendly activities 
we can do
 in the yard.  My son and step daughters are all teens if that 
helps with
 suggestions.  My son and I are not super athletically talented, 
but do
 enjoy outdoor activities.

 Thanks muchly!
 Julie
