Hello all on this sunny, snowy Sunday in Columbus, OH,
Several
days after our Jan. 15 meeting at the Hilliard Public Library, I saw a
news story on NBC that piqued my interest. And, I hope to share sources
for that story with you as well. The "teaser" or intro to the story
was something like: NFL player breaks the sound barrier. After
"googling" that story, I found a wonderful commercial on YouTube and
several news stories about this special player for the Seahawks. (And,
you can watch this young man play this evening in the game between the
Seahawks and the San Francisco 49ers).
I wanted to share what I found and dedicate it to
our young CI/Baha recipients Elena Miller and Aaron White. It's a
worthwhile story, especially in light of much of our discussion at our
recent meeting.
Without further ado, you can read/see more at:

We will meet again on Wednesday, March 12, from 6:30 - 8:30 PM at the Hilliard Public Library Meeting Room at 4772 Cemetery Rd., Hilliard, OH, 43026. Reminders will be sent, but you may wish to mark your calendars now.

Aaron White should be exited for Derrick Coleman to excel! With their
super parents, I believe they will!
