[nfbmi-talk] Leader Dog Summer Experience

[trising]

Do you know a teenager who could use a week of fun, outdoor activity and friendship this summer? Would that teen enjoy the challenge of developing new travel skills and stretching their independence? If so, the Leader Dog Summer Experience was designed with him or her in mind.

 

Our Summer Experience combines outdoor camp activities like kayaking, rock wall climbing and tandem biking with things exclusively Leader Dog-audible pedestrian GPS training and the opportunity to try-out the guide dog lifestyle. The combination helps teenagers increase the skills they need to Live Independently!

 

The Leader Dog Summer Experience is for boys and girls ages 16 and 17 who are legally blind. The program is completely free including airfare-and everyone receives a free Kapten PLUS audible pedestrian GPS device to keep.

 

Please forward this email to everyone you know who may be interested in attending our program. The Summer Experience is scheduled for June 22-June 29, 2012, so time is of the essence. For more information and to start the application process, go to www.leaderdog.org/programs/youth or call our Client Services department at 888-777-5332.

 

Thank you for helping us put this information into the hands of a teenager who can benefit from our Summer Experience.

 

Take care,
