[This is from the Blink Talk Conference]

 
The Kansas Association for the Blind and Visually Impaired held its
 70th annual convention in Topeka, Kansas this last weekend.  Paul
 Edwards, First Vice President of the American Council of the Blind
 was the Keynote speaker.  Maureen West, Administrative Assistant to
 Sen. Robert Dole also spoke.  
 
Not planned, but exciting...Bob Hope who was in town for a show
 stayed at the hotel where the convention was being held.  He stopped
 in and and greeted the delegates and told a few jokes.  Even offered
 25 tickets for the show.
 
It was a fun and interesting weekend.
