> Hello, Everyone!
> 
> On March 21 and 22, we will be holding an in-state training for those who wish to volunteer for our BELL Academy this year. Training will be located at The Lighthouse for the Blind and Visually Impaired in San Francisco and will begin at noon on the 21st and will go until around
> 1 PM on the 22nd. Below is more information about the training from Carla McQuillan. If you wish to attend, please contact Debbie Worstman at debsphilly1 at gmail.com. The cost for overnight accomodations at the Lighthouse is $75 per person.

> Thank you, and all best,

> 
> ABOUT THE TRAINING:
> 
> In the past few years, we have started conducting Bell Academy Training in-state, instead of bringing one or two people to Baltimore.
> Our reasoning is this:
> 
> When someone comes out to train in-state, we are better able to:
> Cater to the individual needs of the affiliate  Train many people than we could reasonably bring to Baltimore, at a much lower cost  We can involve more of the affiliate members in the planning and execution of the Academy  It adds another layer of support from National as your affiliate moves toward your program dates.
> 
> Who should come to training:
> Anyone who would like to help with any aspect of the BELL Academy.
> There are behind the scenes projects and activities that must be done prior to the start of the program, such as: planning field trips; making lessons and classroom materials; making Braille flash cards; raising funds and geting donations; scheduling volunteers; planning and lining up guest speakers; communicating with parents; recruiting students; planning meals and snacks, and more!
> 
> Those who would like to work directly with the children during the program are encouraged to participate in the training as well.  We will be discussing: classroom management; lesson presentation; daily schedules and routines; philosophy and advocacy; how to work with children with carying skills; working under learning shades; and how to manage groups of children.
> 
> The more members who get involved wiht the program, the broader the group of positive blind role models we present to our students!
> Besides, it?s a lot of fun!  You will play games, make lessons, and be able to act like a kid without judgement!
