[SportsandRec] Introduction

[Kendra Schaber]

Hi Patrick and all!
First of all, I also have a boyfriend who is named Patrick. As for the cycling club, as far as I know, there isn’t a blind cycling club. I think this list is the closest that you’ll find. That doesn’t mean that you can’t create one. Also, you don’t have to take my word either. Check out
Www.NFB.net<http://Www.NFB.net>
There are all of the NFB mailing lists there. It never hurts to explore it to look for groups of interest. They occationally add new mailing lists out there.


Ass the result of attending school, I have discovered that Writing is one of my gifts. On the other hand, I have eighth grade spelling. Because of my eighth grade spelling, I’m currently working on improving my spelling where it is possible.
Thank you for taking the time to read this email!
 Blessed Be!

One Minute Message:
The National Federation of the Blind knows that blindness is not the characteristic that defines you or your future. Every day we raise the expectations of blind people, because low expectations create obstacles between blind people and our dreams. You can live the life you want; blindness is not what holds you back.
NFB Pledge:
I pledge to participate actively in the effort of the National Federation of the Blind to achieve equality, oppertunity, and security for the blind; to support the policies and programs of the Federation; and to abide by its constitution.

Go Detroit, Red Wings! Go Pittsburgh, Penguins! Go Portland, Winterhawks! Go Baltimore, Oriels! Go Baltimore, Ravens! Go Oregon State Beavers, baseball and football teams!
