Subject: [Jayhawk-chapter] Hurrah! Luther Fuller and the Braille Challenge:
results

Dear friends,
during the last weekend was the finals competition for the national 
Braille Challenge at Braille Institute in Los Angeles.

our youngest chapter member is Luther Fuller, age 10.

He won second place nationally in this contest of braille reading 
comprehension, proofreading and spelling.

yeah, we're pretty proud!

this was not an NFB sponsored event but NFB strongly promotes braille 
use so I posted this here.

there was an article in the Sunday L.A. Times, I don't have the link 
yet.  it includes a picture of Luther.
