Ron Miller will discuss and demonstrate the power of sound with JAWS.

# Terry welcomes Maria Kristic, Gabriel Lopez Kafati, and Regina Brink to lead a lively and fun conversation featuring the origins of family holiday traditions and how they have been and are still being woven into the loving fabric of our lives. Whether you started something special, or your ancestors brought it from “the old country”, share it with us. You may even find something meaningful you want to add to your family’s festivities.

Join us as we examine several ways to get help with in the JAWS help system.

# We are continuing reading the book, The Unseen Minority: A Social History of Blindness In the United States, by Frances A. Koestler, copyright 1976 and 2004 by the American Foundation for the Blind. This week, chapters 8 through 11 will be covered. We will have time during the first part of the discussion to address chapters 1 through 7. Everyone is welcome

The holiday season is in full swing. It’s hard to believe Thanksgiving is less than two weeks away. Holidays and celebrations change as we all change throughout the years. For example, do we look at New Year’s Eve the same way now as we did as children, or as young adults, or as we grow older? I think we do. Change does not mean they are more or less meaningful, just different. There is cheer in every holiday. Sometimes we just need to look for where it may be hiding. We will find and share it for ourselves and others.
