[BlindTlk] Notice of two upcoming events from the National Association of Guide Dog Users

[Raul A. Gallegos - NAGDU]

Hello everyone, please forward this wherever appropriate. The below is 
information about two upcoming events held by the National Association 
of Guide Dog Users. The notices for them went out to our other guide dog 
user lists earlier this week, so I am compiling them into one message in 
case someone on this list is interested and in case you are not already 
subscribed to those other lists.


First is the Yappy hour. The National Association of Guide Dog Users 
would like to invite you to our next Yappy hour. The Yappy hour is a 
virtual gathering to socialize and have a good time.

Whether you are a current guide dog user, a former guide dog user, 
thinking about becoming a guide dog user, are friends with other guide 
dog users, have any sort of connection with guide dog users no matter 
how tenuous, or simply think that guide dog users are cool, we hope you 
will join us this Saturday on Zoom.

This informal meeting takes place every two weeks unless otherwise 
noted. By informal, we truly mean that. While serious topics about guide 
dog users may come up from time to time, we will not be holding any 
NAGDU or NFB business. The meeting information is as follows.

Date: Saturday, February 20, 2021.
Time: 3 PM Eastern. (This calculates as 2 PM Central, 1 PM Mountain, 12 
noon Pacific, and 11 AM Alaska.)
Where: Zoom.

Second is Guide Dog Matters. The National Association of Guide Dog Users 
would like to invite you to our next Guide Dog Matters seminar. This is 
a one-hour presentation on a specific topic related to guide dog users. 
The seminar typically takes place on the third Sunday of every month 
unless otherwise noted. For those who are not able to attend, the 
presentation will be recorded and shared on the list as well as the 
NAGDU Facebook page.

This month's topic is, "Choosing the right guide dog training program."
Date: Sunday, February 21, 2021.
Time: 3 PM Eastern. (This calculates as 2 PM Central, 1 PM Mountain, 12 
noon Pacific, and 11 AM Alaska.)
Where: Zoom.
