Every member of the team should be receiving regular mail, including a Braille version of this letter and some other comments. I wanted to ensure you all Received my gratitude in yet another format, this mailing list. I have been watching with both pride and appreciation through the entire process. Here is a paste of the letter I have sent to each member of the team.

> I am so appreciative and proud of the NFB NH Affiliate for the hard work and success in supporting our Walk for Sight this year. Honestly, I was sad to not be on your roster as I value my being a member with you. Of course, as part of the Future In Sight Dream Team, we had such a fun competition for “top dog” as Swirl might call it. I may have barely sneaked past Fred as an individual but your team soundly rose above us, highlighting the value of a motivated team. We are all  ultimately working together towards a common vision. I know all of you understand how important it is to support each other in raising awareness as powerfully as possible. Additionally we need the essential fund raising to  ensure Future In Sight may provide the training, tools and services to all the people in NH who experience blindness and visual impairment. Together we are building a better future in sight for everyone!

> There is much work ahead for all of us and I look forward to next year’s opportunity. I hope the competition will be fierce and fun once again with all of us gathering live to celebrate on May 18, 2024 at our Walk for Sight. Again, congratulations and thank you all.
