[Ohio-talk] Braille Challenge

[Deanna Lewis]

The Braille Challenge at Clovernook was an awesome success this year. I had the privilege of proctoring the Freshman group of kids. I had 5 students in my class, and they all were amazing! It was so much fun! I really liked encouraging the kiddos in my group that were struggling a bit, I urged them to continue to practice their Braille skills.

On Friday, March 1, the regional competition of the Braille Challenge was held at the Clovernook Center in Cincinnati. The Sophomore division was the largest group of students and the top 3 winners were BELL Academy students.
1 has attended every BELL program held in Ohio.

Many people deserve a lot of credit for encouraging each of these students and their passion for Braille. I believe BELL Academy has helped them love Braille because of the hard work of all of the volunteers who are so dedicated during this wonderful program.  These students are the future of the blind in Ohio and the country. I want to congratulate all of them.

Thank you to everyone who has volunteered to work during BELL over the past several years. This is why BELL is so important to our blind students.

I would like to see a group from the Cleveland area next year.
