Results and Photos of TAD Booth at TSD Homecoming October 4 was a
\nvery productive day for Texas School for the Deaf and Texas
\nAssociation of the Deaf at the annual TSD Homecoming event in Austin.
\nA record of 67 booths was on display and nearly 3000 people enjoyed
\nthe warm Saturday weather. TAD had three booths, enough rooms for five
\nreasons. <\/p>\n
Beside our membership drive booth, Karen and Tony Kirby were there to
\nprovide information about our June 11-13, 2009 conference in San
\nAntonio. Miss Deaf Texas Ambassadorship committee sold fruit cups and
\nproduced a popular hair spraying fundraiser under a blue canopy. <\/p>\n
For the first time in TSD history, we hosted a voter registration
\ndrive with the collaboration of TSD, Coalition of Texans with
\nDisabilities, and Travis County Elections Department. Over 50 deaf and
\nhard of hearing people registered as voters and will cast their vote
\non the November 6 presidential election. Another booth guest was
\nRegina Blye, executive director of the Texas Statewide Independent
\nLiving Council. Our five-themed booth display was one of the best for
\nTAD in as many years. <\/p>\n
