[Colorado-Talk] Washington Seminar Schedule Including Colorado Appointments

Thu Feb 4 16:05:50 UTC 2021

Greetings to all:

Please find below the Washington Seminar schedule for next week. This
schedule includes the Colorado appointments and the Colorado caucus which
will take place at 6:00 PM mountain time on Monday, February 8. This is a
great opportunity for Coloradans to participate actively in an event which
has great significance for all blind people in the country and which many of
us are unable to attend due to resource constraints.

Cordially,

Curtis Chong
