[ACBS] Social networking

[Laura Glowacki]

Dornetta,

Please send me your email address.  I can get you in contact with my 
step dad who also is very involved with a local social activities group 
for blind and sighted people.  All events are accessible, and he could 
give you ideas on things they do and how they organize it as well.

Thanks,
Laura
