<p class="MsoNormal">In Connecticut, there are several divisions including guide dogand diabetic. I am thinking of starting a sports and recreation division here in this state. I would like to know if anyone is interested. Please hit me up by sending me an
email to <a href="mailto:palaski65@comcast.net">palaski65@comcast.net</a> and lets all try to get in shape for the summer season which is looking like it is finally on the way.
