When prompted for the access code, dial 435800#. We are creating a powerpoint presentation to educate business owners, first responders, etc. about the rights and responsibilities of service animals’ handlers and the acceptable, appropriate behavior of our service animals. Marianne Denning, OAGDU treasurer, will also share our education folder in Dropbox. It contains the powerpoint as it is progressing, and also a separate Dropbox folder for pictures or videos that the committee will deem relevant to the powerpoint script. Thank you to those who have already participated in our teleconferences pertinent to this effort. All service animal handlers are welcome. Even if you have not yet joined OAGDU, join the call and we will tell you how to become a member if you wish.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Cordially,<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Debbie Baker, OAGDU Education Committee<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p></div></body></html>
