That's to bad!  I really enjoyed being in the contest last year! 
Sincerely, Linda

I think that you're right. What do you have in mind is to specifics? The 
braille literacy committee should make a proposal to the board. Thank you

Well, here’s a shocker.  The annual Braille Readers Are Leaders contest 
sponsored by national apparently is no more.  The adult contest was around 
the last 5 (?) years.  And its demise is only one year after national 
stopped the BRAL program for children, that having been around for maybe 30 
years.

I think the NFB of Illinois needs to consider sponsoring some kind of BRAL 
contest on a statewide level.

Great to hear from you. Unfortunately, we will not be having an adult 
contest this year. We are hoping that NAPUB may be able to take over the 
contest and reinstate it next year though.



All the best,

Natalie

Hi Natalie



Is BRAL starting on Nov 1?  I haven’t heard a peep.
