<DIV>I appreciate the enthusiasm and I hesitate to put on a wet blanket but we may want to explore financial needs. In addition a date must be coordinated with the Institute and NFB calendar. Discussion with Mary Jo, Mark Riccobono and Dr Maurer would be in order. The PIBE board may want to discuss these logistics before opening up discussion to the whole. Just a few thoughts. <BR><BR>Sent from my iPhone

<DIV>Hi all,</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Denise's idea is a wonderful one!  I think it would be highly beneficial to get more hands-on technology training.  I was going to offer to host the group in my little subdivision in Boiling Springs, PA (ha, ha), but Mary Jo's idea of utilizing the Jernigan Institute and the IBTC seems a smidge better ;)</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>I'd love to help organize (but not lead) this terrific event!</DIV>
