Results and Photos of TAD Booth at TSD Homecoming

Results and Photos of TAD Booth at TSD Homecoming October 4 was a
very productive day for Texas School for the Deaf and Texas
Association of the Deaf at the annual TSD Homecoming event in Austin.
A record of 67 booths was on display and nearly 3000 people enjoyed
the warm Saturday weather. TAD had three booths, enough rooms for five
reasons.

Beside our membership drive booth, Karen and Tony Kirby were there to
provide information about our June 11-13, 2009 conference in San
Antonio. Miss Deaf Texas Ambassadorship committee sold fruit cups and
produced a popular hair spraying fundraiser under a blue canopy.

For the first time in TSD history, we hosted a voter registration
drive with the collaboration of TSD, Coalition of Texans with
Disabilities, and Travis County Elections Department. Over 50 deaf and
hard of hearing people registered as voters and will cast their vote
on the November 6 presidential election. Another booth guest was
Regina Blye, executive director of the Texas Statewide Independent
Living Council. Our five-themed booth display was one of the best for
TAD in as many years.

TAD is a non-profit 501 (3) C organization that was established in
1886. There are about 650 members, including online E-newsletter
subscribers. TAD is an advocacy state association and is affiliated
with the National Association of the Deaf. TAD has initiated many laws
