you. I'm going to post another YouTube clip for your enjoyment. We are proud to be one of the stops on the Haymakers Colorado swing. They play our benefit on Thursday evening July 25 at EPIC Campus in Littleton. Doors open at 6 and show at 7. It’s a family-friendly
no alcohol show. </span><o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">The gentleman who plays stand-up base and mandolin will thrill you with their sweet backing harmonies and extraordinary musicianship. Dustin Arbuckle
is in demand. As a virtuoso harmonica player. In addition to Haymakers Dustin has a number of projects on which he works. Our own Tom Page who serves as a member of our National Board of Directors and state president of our Kansas affiliate is an exceptional
singer, songwriter, and guitar picker. Tom is also known as an activist taking the lead to reform services for the blind in Kansas and the sheltered workshop system nationally. Living in Wichita for many years Tom has often been a lone voice for reform at
the local Invision National Industries for the Blind Affiliate. He lives one of Bob Dylan's favorite sayings. “The price of freedom is internal vigilance”.

to Hank Williams on the 100<sup>th</sup> anniversary of his birth delighted Hanks fans.
