Dear  all,
 

 
I am  happy to confirm Dwight's earlier announcement.  Lighthouse Central  
Florida is planning to observe and celebrate White Cane Safety Day on 
October  15th, from 11:00 AM to 1:00 PM in front of City Hall in Downtown  
Orlando. 
 

 
We  invite each of you to join us and help us to increase awareness  about 
significance of the White Cane and the importance of the White Cane  Law.
 

 
We  are very pleased with the high level of support from the City of  
Orlando.  Mayor Buddy Dyer will be present to read the City of Orlando  White 
Cane Safety Day Proclamation.  Several Commissioners have also  committed to 
joining us.
 

 
Now,  we need your support and your presence, as well.  The Mayor's  
proclamation will probably be read around 11:00 Am and I am sure that you will  
want to be present.  If you are able to spend some time with us, would  you 
please confirm and let me know what time you might arrive?   
 

 
We  do have one request.  In order to draw more attention and appear as a  
cohesive group, we would like everyone to wear Red and White.  These are  
the colors significant to the White Cane.  If red and white are not part  of 
your wardrobe, pehaps you can subsitute khaki.
 

 
For  your information:  Orlando City Hall, 400  S. Orange Ave., Orlando, FL 
 32801
 

 
I  will send additional information over the next few days.  Meanwhile,  
please don't hesitate to contact me with any questions you may have.   
 

 
I am  looking forward to joining each of you for a great celebration of 
2010  White Cane Safety Day!
