I appreciate your support Debbie, but the goal of our being at the 
Islamic Festival is to develop relationships between the Muslim 
community and the NFB. Destiny's presence may offend some Muslims and 
make them unwilling to listen to what we have to offer particular in the 
presence of food. They may not immediately associate Destiny with the 
role of a guide dog for the blind. I want our this opportunity that 
Yasmin has worked hard to get for us to be a positive experience for all 
who participant (both chapter member's and Muslims). I have not decided 
what I will do beyond the baking.
