questions as soon as possible and send your answers to me or Annette.



Please and thank you!



Yes / No questions:

our members created an audio montage for Meet The Blind month)

2.    Civic Activities: Aside from participating in local, state, and
national Federation activities, in what community programs have you been
involved? Be sure to give examples of how each activity demonstrates a

Braille to read scripture in church; Five members used canes and guide dogs

participated this year.

(example: Our president is a team member for the soon to be a national
broadcast radio show, two members attended the Washington seminar training,
and two members sent blankets and words of encouragement for a national
project.)
