With that change, we have discovered that the new owners will be doing some extensive remodeling and the previous owners did not make some necessary corrections to the Braille number of the sleeping rooms. Scott LaBarre and Kevan Worley discovered that a great number of the rooms were numbered incorrectly. The hotel has had some Braille number stickers printed and has affixed them to all of the room signs. You will find the correctly stickered number near the top of the room sign above the print number. They were unable to remove the existing incorrect number, so there will be two sets of Braille numbers. Again, look for the stickered Braille number above the print number. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'><font size=3 face=Calibri><span style='font-size:12.0pt'><o:p> </o:p></span></font></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'><font size=3 face=Calibri><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>And finally, if you are planning on participating in the Yoga segment of the Sports and Recreation Division breakouts on Thursday 10/29, do please bring a mat or a towel, as they will be unable to provide them for everyone in attendance. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'><font size=3 face=Calibri><span style='font-size:12.0pt'><o:p> </o:p></span></font></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'><font size=3 face=Calibri><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>Thanks much,<o:p></o:p></span></font></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'><font size=3 face=Calibri><span style='font-size:12.0pt'><o:p> </o:p></span></font></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'><font size=3 face=Calibri><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>Lisa Bonderson<o:p></o:p></span></font></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'><font size=3 face=Calibri><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>NFB of Colorado<o:p></o:p></span></font></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'><font size=2 face=Calibri><span style='font-size:11.0pt'><o:p> </o:p></span></font></p></div></body></html>
