[CT-NFB] The Nest is Empty! The Birds are Gone!

[Mary Silverberg]

Hello Everyone!
As you can see from the original date of this post, the birds have still
not returned to Capistrano or CT!
The coup is empty and  needs your urgent help!

NFB-CT needs someone  new  to lead the  charge to raise  money through The
Travelers  Birdies for Charity program.
This effort brings $2,000  to NFB-CT  every year.  This money helps us to
do our work.  That's not chicken feed!

Who is ready  to step up and lead the way?

Mary & Joe
