Braille Readers Are Leaders Contest



November 1, 2011-January 4, 2012



The National Federation of the Blind Jernigan Institute, the 
National
Association to Promote the Use of Braille (NAPUB), and the 
National
Organization of Parents of Blind Children (NOPBC) are pleased to
announce the 29th annual Braille Readers Are Leaders contest for
students grades K-12.  This contest encourages children around 
the
country to be proud of their ability to read Braille and 
continually
work to improve their skills.  As in previous years students will 
read
as many Braille pages as they can in two months (November 1, 
2011,
through January 4, 2012) to compete for ribbons, cash prizes, and 
an
all-expenses-paid trip to the 2012 NFB national convention in 
Dallas,
Texas.

For the third year NAPUB and the NFB Jernigan Institute are also
offering a contest for mature Braille readers.  Adults will 
compete for
cash prizes, national recognition, and bragging rights!

Teams of two to five participants are welcome to compete in both 
the
K-12 and adult contests again this year.  Registration begins 
October 1,
2011.  Form your teams, get some interesting reading material, 
and warm
up your fingers!  For detailed information about the K-12 and 
adult
contests please visit www.nfb.org/BRAL <http://www.nfb.org/BRAL>
