SAVE THE DATE – 2023 Northern California Regional Braille Challenge
SATURDAY, MARCH 4th, 2023
Each year blind and low vision students, families, teachers, and community members from all over northern California gather for a day dedicated to braille
literacy through the Braille Challenge. This gathering will have blind and low vision youth demonstrate their braille skills in a series of contest ranging
from reading and comprehension, speed and accuracy, spelling, proofreading, and tactile graphics. The challenge this year will be held in person at the
Headquarters of the LightHouse for the Blind and Visually Impaired in San Francisco. For general information or to sign up for updates and announcements
about this year’s challenge, please contact Jamey Gump by email at
jgump@lighthouse-sf.org
