Thanks for the ordering info! I have another question: does the NFB Free White Cane program only give out stright or folding canes or can you pick your own cane?

How do I go about getting a free cane through NFB?

I personally don't care for the 50/50 canes because they don't give as much feedback as a straight cane.  Plus, the elastic band can break that's inside them.  Why don't you get a free cane through NFB?

Does anyone know if the NFB 50/50 cane is a good cane to use?  I generally prefer 60 inch canes but am thinking 63 is good for the extra length because I walk fast.  If I am correct the way to write the order # for the cane would be ACY63F.  Does anyone know if I wrote the number correctly?  And also how long would it take for a check to get from Oregon to Maryland and vice-versa?
