Subject: Wood Carving Show information


Dear Mr. Posont,

Recently we spoke about the Greater Lansing Woodcarver's show.  The show
will have a section dedicated to the visually impaired where guests can
touch, feel, handle and pick up the carvings.  We, the woodcarvers,
believe dedicating a portion of the show for the visually impaired is
quite unique and we want as many as possible to participate.  We are
excited that your organization will be able to assist us in alerting
others to this show.  The show will be held on April 19th in the Haslett
High School gymnasium from 10am to 4pm.  Admission for visually impaired
people and one companion for each has been waived.  The cost for others
is $3.00.  In our phone conversation you said to send you some sort of
announcement about the show and one is attached.  I have also attached
directions for getting to the high school (printed announcements will
have these directions on the back).  We really appreciate your efforts in
helping us in this endeavor.

I have contacted the Michigan Services for the Blind and will be taking
them printed announcements for distribution.  If you could suggest other
people and/or organizations that should receive information concerning
the show please let me know.

Thanks again for your assistance.

Warm regards,

Fred Erbisch
