[Ncabs] Raising Cane 5K Invitation

[Salisbury, Justin Mark]

Dear NCABS members and leaders,

    Thank you all for a phenomenal seminar!  I had such a great time, and I heard tons of compliments from attendees and vendors alike.  I am forwarding to you an invitation that I recently received for a 5k race coming up this weekend, and blind people are the target audience.  Do you all remember how we told you that blind people can do anything?  Here's a great opportunity to get out and get involved in the community, too.

Your President,

Justin Salisbury

Good morning, Justin!

I'm the race director of Raising Cane 5K.  Raising Cane is a new event that is open to all community members and it is designed to meet the needs of people with visual impairments.  Raising Cane's goals are to encourage athletecism and competition in the visually impaired community.

I would like to invite the North Carolina Association of Blind Students to participate in Raising Cane.  The event has running and walking opportunities, and we kick off our inaugral event on March 26, at 9am at the Dix Campus in Raleigh.  You can find out more about Raising Cane at www.raisingcane5k.com<http://www.raisingcane5k.com/>  Race registration can be completed online.

If you have any questions, please contact me at (919) 741-9439 or at this email address.  Thanks and I look forward to hearing from you.
