Welcome to the summer, 2017 issue of the Blind Californian. Be sure to put the BC, and whatever you use to read it, in your travel pack so you're never far away from CCB. "Master," King says, "don't you think people would like to put CCB away for a while and just relax?" Perhaps, but there's so much going on that I think it'll be a bit difficult.

There's President Wilkinson's article about a new and important survey, Paul Shane writes about his unexpected experiences at the CCB conference and convention plus upcoming fundraising adventures, and Susan Glass offers a comprehensive report on the convention. We also have a report in three voices about awards presented at the banquet, and a report from the Constitution Committee on the work of re-writing the CCB Constitution and Bylaws.

Add humor and poetry, plus hidden music, and you have the summer BC. Don't forget to water-proof it so it survives your river-rafting and kayak fun.
