[NFBV-Winchester] Event with the Lions club. All hands on deck

[Chris Walker]

Chapter members and friends,
I just wanted to give everybody an update regarding the event for White Cane awareness day.
Tom Crosby from the Lions club is working with the City to schedule a date. Nothing has been set in stone as of yet since there are scheduling conflicts.
Once I hear from Tom I will let you all know More. Thanks
