Activities
Mind's Eye View Peer Support Group - Mind's Eye View is a peer support group for blind and low vision consumers. It is a recurring Zoom event, on the first Monday of the month from 5:30-6:30pm and is consumer-led in which they bring up topics they would like to discuss. Contact Kirby to get the Zoom link! Join us for this great group!
Tech Talk - Tech talk is a peer support group for blind and low vision consumers. It is a recurring Zoom event, on the third Monday of the month from 5:30-6:30pm. Each Tech Talk will have a guest speaker who will share information on topics that interest participants. Email Kirby to get Zoom link.
Virtual Stretching Without Looking - Improve your flexibility and strength with detailed description and hands-on help. You don’t have to see it to do it! This class is held in a ZOOM environment, so you will need to email Kirby Hough to obtain the code to enter the event. Led by Liz Kerlin with True Love Yoga KC.
Bowling Blind - Bowling Blind is held on the third Wednesday of each month from 11:30am-2:00pm at Ward Parkway Lanes, 1523 W 89th St, Kansas City, MO 64114. We bowl two games for the price of one (a nonprofit discount), for $7.00 per person. Bring CASH! We must pay with one credit card, which means participants need to bring $7.00 cash, which will be collected before we pay for the entire group. If you don’t have cash, you may pay with your credit card, but you will be paying regular price, $7.00 per game. RSVP by the TUESDAY BEFORE to Kirby Hough.
