[Cccnfbw] Picnic location

Tue Jul 24 19:39:45 UTC 2012

Hi Dawn, 

Welcome to the group.  

The National Federation of the Blind is a consumer group.  Most of the people have some degree of blindness, are family or friends of blind people wanting to improve the lives of the blind. 

On the national level these are different groups such as Parents of Blind Children, Diabetic Action Network, Sports, etc.  

You should come to the picnic and meet the members of the local chapter here in Vancouver Washington.  Other members will be bringing there families too; so bring yours too. 

Unfortunately I have an other obligation that day.  We are a fun group.

Hello, My name is Dawn Georgeades .  I have a son Named Jakobi who is 3 years old and is blind and has partial defness because he had stage 4 neuroblastoma cancer at 8 months old.  I cannot remember how I got on this list.  I was curious as to what all this National Federation of the Blind stuff is.  Is it a volunteer organization?  Does it cost money to get involved? What all do they do for the blind community?  I wasnt sure if this was something I was even supposed to be on a list for :)  

Thank You 

Dawn Georgeades

Ok to simplify things and make things safer for people lets just have the picnic at the Piano hospital house next door. It is a much better bus situation and there are bathrooms and I will be glad to help Don set things up and take things down so let's do it. Les F

I have secured the back yard of the house the Piano Hospital owns. We can set up tables and chairs in the yard. The address of the house is 2500 E. Evergreen Blvd. 

The house is immediately west of the Piano Hospital parking lot. 

The bus stop on Evergreen is at Evergreen and Z Street Just on the corner of the Mini Mart parking lot. 

The 37 stop is at MilPlane and Z street. 

Let me know if we want to use this suggestion. I want to make invitations to the WSSB students who live in the area.

Don, 
This sounds like a great idea.

I am very sure I could get permission for us to hold our picnic in the back 
yard of our house next to the piano hospital. We did it there when I was 
president many years ago.   

We have tables and chairs we can set up, and If our returning student has 
not returned by then we would have a kitchen we could use. We could move in 
to the building if by some slim chance it should rain. 

I will check on the availability and let you know tomorrow. 

Our building is accessible by bus routes 37, 32 and 2. All are within two 
blocks of the school.
