[Colorado-Talk] CABS Meeting Next Friday 13th

[Cindy Coffin]

Greetings,
The NFL playoffs are right around the corner and the Colorado Association
of blind students will once again be having our NFL playoffs survivor pool.
You may have one last year and want to continue your rain, or maybe this
year it’s your turn to be the champion and take home the top prize.
Proceeds will benefit the Colorado Association of blind students in their
pursuit to help every blind student in Colorado achieve their dreams.
Entries are due by January 4 of 2020. The cost is a flat fee regardless of
the method of payment. Please see attached official rules for complete
instructions and payment options.
Remember if you don’t play you can never win and every entry is a win for
the blind students of Colorado!

Hope everyone has a great holiday season.
Colorado Association Of Blind Students Thanks Cynthia Coffin VP
