We are having it this year at the same location we had it two years ago, in front of the Ronald J. Norick Downtown Library at 300 Park Avenue, in the heart of downtown Oklahoma City. We chose this location because of the proximity to the county courthouse and city hall as well as having a street car stop right next to the library on Hudson. There are also several buses that drop off on the west side of Hudson at Robert S Kerr; 009, 012, 013, 13N and 016.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:18.0pt;font-family:"Montserrat SemiBold""><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:18.0pt;font-family:"Montserrat SemiBold"">We will meet at 11:00 to read the Governors Proclamation then walk around the area circling the court house and city hall. We will end at 12:00 just in time to go catch lunch at one of the numerus eating places in the area. Embark as graciously donated Street Car passes again this year which gives you the opportunity to ride down and eat in Bricktown or Automobile Alley as well.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:18.0pt;font-family:"Montserrat SemiBold""><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:18.0pt;font-family:"Montserrat SemiBold"">This is a great opportunity to show the public that just because you are blind, it doesn’t mean you can’t travel, live and work independently!
