Thanks for your support, Janice.  That is a thoughtful response.  I am thinking maybe this is a topic for a Monitor article.

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.

dog out of a public event, and we'd have to fight on that, as we have fought churches who have done that.  It would be up to Janice, of course, to decide what she wants to do.

Hi Janice,
We would love to have you but the dog guide may not be allowed.

Debbie and Yasmin,
I will be glad to bake some cookies (I let you know what kind at the chapter meeting) and possibly help for two hours. Can you give me the address?

Thanks Debbie,
The festival is on September 22 from 11:00 am to 3:00 pm. We will need to be there at least 30 minutes before the event. Please let Debbie or me know if you could assist. I do not need too many but two will be fine. Then we can take turns to walk around and taste international foods.

Yasmin has got us a table at an Islamic festival in Gaithersburg where we can play braille games and sell small baked goods such as cookies, brownies, cupcakes or small loaves of bread.  She doesn't believe that big cakes are good for this event because people will be looking for snacks.  This will be a small fundraiser but hopefully an occasion to be seen by people we don't usually meet.
The scholarship dinner is October 27.  Pleaase be thinking about auction items and people to invite.
The state convention is November 9-11 at the Doubletree in Annapolis.  The bus will cost $40, the banquet will cost $35, senior and parent lunches will be $16;  registration will be $15.
See you on Saturday.
Debbie
