<p class="MsoNormal">We have not had the kind of presence at BLIND Inc. that I would like to see. Trevor Attenberg (who is currently in Vietnam for a short term teaching stint) worked at the BLIND Inc. Summer programs. Also, Brian Martin went there for a summer
program. There was a guy named Dave Neese (not sure on the surname spelling) from South Windsor who went to BLIND Inc for training around 2014-2015. I believe he met Dick Davis at the state convention that we did in New London with the Employment Seminar,
and that led to him going to training at BLIND Inc. Then, he came back to the one we did in Middlebury while he was a student, and Dan Wenzel was there with him to represent the center.
