[nagdu] [Seeing Eye Graduates Network] FYI. A Tribute Booklet for all the guide dog...

[Debby Phillips]

I'm forwarding this in case anyone wants to do it.  I'm having 
mixed feelings about this, because there's a part of me that 
thinks it's cool, and another part that is a little 
uncomfortable.  I think if I do something in tribute for Seeing 
Eye (which I would have no problem doing) I'll just give them the 
money.  But that's just me.    Debby and Nova

Guide Dog School Reception
 GDUI wants to recognize and thank all of the guide dog schools 
for the passion, dedication, and commitment they pour into 
creating excellent matches for each of us.  Needless to say, 
these schools are vital to the blind community.  As our way of 
saying thanks, the 2015 GDUI Program Committee is pleased to host 
our Deep in the Hearts of Guide Dogs Guide Dog Schools 
Appreciation Reception, which will be held on Monday evening, 
July 6.  To honor our schools and those who will be representing 
them at our convention, we are preparing a tribute booklet, which 
will be presented as a keepsake to all those representing our 
schools who attend, and mailed to all the schools honored by our 
reception after the event has ended.  The tribute booklet 
provides a tangible way to thank our schools for the guide dogs 
who mean so much to us.  We want to convey from deep in our 
hearts a respectful regard that resides within the heart of every 
guide dog partnership.



All of us love our dogs and appreciate the tremendous effort our 
schools put forward to make it possible for us to receive and 
work with our guides.  You don't have to be a member of our 
organization to contribute to the keepsake booklet.  We welcome 
everyone's participation, even if you are not planning to attend 
the convention.

Appreciation Reception as a sponsor of the Deep in the Hearts of
