Event Description Heading
   Calling all NFB members to come hang out with the phoenix chapter on April 1, 2017. We will be providing Hotdogs, burgers, chicken, and a magic show for the children, which will be performed by a blind magician (Ryan Fox), so we strongly recommend for you to bring your children out for a day of magic tricks. We also will be doing a fund raiser giving single people opportunity to meet other single people. We will be holding an auction at the picnic for people to be able to bid on someone they wish to cook for, or maybe take to lunch, or dinner. People that volunteer please no that all money raised will go to the phoenix chapter unless someone in another chapter volunteers then 1/3 of the money 1would go to their chapter. So if you would like to volunteer please let the president brad know.   |

 Tell the driver to follow the signs leading to the Phoenix Zoo.  When they make the turn to the Zoo parking lot, take the first left.  This will bring you to the one-way circle drive.  Follow the drive past Ramada’s 8, then on the inside  of the circle, past the ranger station, and turn right at the next drive.  Ramada 2 is the first left, after you take the right-hand turn past the ranger station.    Papa Ks Cafe <papa.ks.kafe at gmail.com>     |

1. Itis respectable to be blind. It’s okay to be blind. Being blind issomething that we need not feel troubled or embarrassed about, concerned aboutor emotionally exhausted over. It’s okay to be blind.
2. The real problem of blindness is not the absence of vision but isthe social misconceptions and stereotypes that exist about blindness. It is not the physical absence of eye sight but it is what society has come tobelieve about our blindness. We reject the misconceptions that society has andwe accept that the physical absence of our sight is not the big problem.
3. With proper training and opportunity the average blind person cando the average job in the average place of work.
4. Blindnessis simply one of many human characteristics, like being tall or being short,being big or small, being bright or average. Blindness is simply one of many
characteristics.
5. Blindnesscan be reduced to the level of an inconvenience or physical nuisance. 
6. Webelieve in the effectiveness of alternative non visual techniques.
7. Ifwe want equal rights we need to accept equal responsibility.
