Listen "Blind Leaders' Journey: Traveling to State College"

Episode Synopsis

ntCU, I talk about traveling to State College for a Leadership Seminar by the NFB of PA. I explain how I had to scramble to find alternative modes of transportation when our Amtrak train was delayed for my group of seven. The final leg of our journey was handled by a one-legged Uber driver. I also tell you about my first visit to the Overbrook School for the Blind the day after returning from State College. Show notes at https://www.iCantCU.com/223   Overbrook School For The Blind It is hard to believe that I hadn’t ever been to the school, even though it is within 30 minutes of the places I have lived in Delaware County. Have a look at the school’s website at https://www.obs.org/. Learn About Descript The transcript from this episode is done using Descript.
