[Preferably something later than sunrise though, my dear early-bird friends.] :) [My Aunt (like a 2nd mom) passed away, alone, in a nursing home in Minneapolis this summer. It kills me that I couldn't afford to visit more than once in the past two years. I've considered it before, and still feel compelled to make visits locally. At least to try it once. Others may be at a similar long-distance disadvantage with their loved ones. Hoping to buddy-up with a fellow Lion for the first visit, though, as I've never done anything like this before and do feel a little awkward about it. Anything in the works?...] I would like info on service/ visit activities for the Collin Oaks Assisted Living Center and/or other related facilities.

March 8, 2008 - Beeping Easter Egg Hunt for the little ones (blind): Teepee Hill @ White Rock Lake, 9 am - 12 noon 2. April 15, 2008 - Division for Blind Services and American Federation of the Blind are jointly hosting an event at AFB, 11030 Ables Lane, Dallas TX 75229, from 1-4 p.m. We are trying to get businesses to see what great technology is available for people who are blind, so that they are more receptive to hiring blind individuals! I hope this is appropriate to put on this blog, but since you all are involved with blindness issues, I figured it would be!

However, I would prefer that this not become the main means of communication within the club. Being perfectly honest, after spending all day at work on a computer, the last thing I want to do is come home at night and spend my evenings on one. I do like the website.
