You go, Cheryl! The Chamber of Commerce should employ you. And besides, I
agree!

Hello All,
As a member of Cleveland ChapterI think our meetings are of a average
length, 1 hour thirty minutes to 2 hours, each meeting has an agenda, the
location we useis not open all night and we must leave before closing time.
There are chapter members that socialize at other times, recently several
items have been posted to newsline of a social nature by the Cuyahoga
chapter. Melina is a great contact for these types of events, she is open to
new ideas  and tries to accomadate us. No one fits into the chemistry of
every group but, in Cleveland there are choices. There is another wonderful
chapter, Cuyahoga and you can contact Cheryl Fisher for meeting information.

For orientation to a new area, there are several ways to make this happen.
Tri-C has an accessibility office and if you contact them with your problem
the school should assist you. Your state counselor is qualified to provide
the direction necessary to receive additional orientation and mobility
training. There is a another option, just do it!Do it scared, do it
whilewhen unsure, but just do it! People may be more helpful than you think.
Cleveland is growing in many directions, finding something to do is never
the problem. There is new construction, great restaurants, many learning
institutions, we are a medical mecca, home of the Cleveland Browns and other
professional sports teams, world class museums, The Cleveland Orchestrathat
is housed in the best concert hall on the planet Severance Hall. We have
beaches, jet skiing, canoeing, rivers, fishing, islands, a new Elephant
Crossing at the zoo, Cleveland offers the best paratransit system in the
USA, and so much more. Most importantly we are a city with great folks that
love to work, live, and play right here in Cleveland, Ohio!
Blessings,
Cheryl Fields
