[blindkid] Fwd: Thank you to all

[DrV]

On behalf of my family, I would like to thank Peggy & Everyone involved in 
making the Braille Book Flea Market a huge success.

The excitement leading up to the event & at the positive energy in the air 
Market itself was amazing!

The Braille Book Flea Market remains one of the very much look forward to 
"highlights of the year" for my kids.

Thanks so much.

Eric V

>>Hello:
>>
>>I want to thank everyone who sent in books for the Flea Market this year 
>>in
>>Dallas.  It was a big success.  Even though the Flea Market went till 7 
>>pm.,
>>most of the books were well picked over and being boxed up by 6:30.  Of
>>course, all of the twin vision books were gone within 30 minutes.
>>
>>For those of you who were there, you know how exciting it is to see 
>>everyone
>>rush in the room to get to their preferred books first.  For those of you
>>who do not attend the Flea Market, it is hard to describe just how fast
>>parents, kids and educators stream into the room in all directions, to 
>>grab
>>up the Harry Potter book to complete their set, or the home schoolers that
>>rush to the reference section.  Twin Vision books are the most popular and
>>that area is swamped!
>>
>>It is exciting to see the kids that grab a pile and find a spot to sort
>>through them at a fast leisure.
>>
>>Needless to say, this is not a traditional book fair.
>>
>>As we have only 5 hours to open, sort, organize, stack and prepare the 
>>boxes
>>and room for the event, I do not know just who all contributes.  I wish I
>>did.  So, a wide spread thank you will have to do.
>>
>>Thank you to all of you who helped to make this such a bit success.
