[KeyStoneChapter] April 2024 Chapter Meeting

[Harriet Go]

Hello everyone!
I hope everyone is doing well.

Our April 2024 meeting will be held this Saturday March 9, 2024 Using a hybrid model, with an in-person and a virtual option. The meeting will begin at 10:15 a.m. Please see below for the directions to the Penn Museum and the Zoom link for the meeting.



The carnival is coming to town!

That’s right, a Braille carnival! Our chapter is in the midst of planning and preparing a carnival that will focus on fun games and activities that use Braille for the students at St. Lucy Day School. The carnival will take place on Friday April 19, 2024. Come share your ideas for this event and help with the planning. We will also need people to help out on the actual day of the event.



We will also be discussing  fundraising ideas, legislation across the state, opportunities to help, and much more!

And it is not too early to think about it, but our annual national convention is right around the corner.



After the meeting this month, we will be having a brown bag lunch get-together. So pack a lunch, or grab something from the museum café, and hang out with us for a bit afterwards to chat, network, and relax.
