Our topic this year is How do you DO That?: Teaching each other skills we've always wanted to learn.
We'll be meeting once again at the lovely and gracious Wooded Glen Retreat Center in Henryville, Indiana, located minutes away from Louisville, Kentucky. It's a great opportunity to connect with friends and to enjoy conversations that explore the impact of internal and external factors on ourselves as people who are blind.
Our agenda? Well, that will be up to us as participants. Anyone who would like to teach something is invited to get together with those who would like to learn. Skills could range from things like "how to ask for help," to "what the Heck do I do with this iPhone," to perhaps "how to whittle." The possibilities are limited by the imagination of those willing to teach or learn.
Retreat Date: Wednesday September 27 through Sunday October 1.
