[nfbmi-talk] FW: Tactile Tours on March 11

[Michael Powell]

Hello all.

I had a chance to talk to Donna Posont about this last night.   It shows how the partnerships we are developing  in creating new opportunities for blind children and adults are paying off. 

Thanks, Donna, for all your work on this and thanks to those who worked on it with you.
