It was a perfect time to step out into hurricane force winds and mosey over to the national office for a reception in our honor. It's a nice office that serves a purpose, does it well and does it frugally. In other words, your money is spent wisely. There are no big screen TV's. The boardroom consists of a large table and cushioned stack chairs.
Adornments are few, but information is aplenty.
The reception was a good time to meet all of the staff, ask questions, get a tour and just get to know each other. Our common bond breaks down all kinds of barriers normally encountered in other conversations with strangers. Our final stop for the evening was a casual buffet next door to the office called West End Grill. The first order of business was finding out what the new SHHH Strategic Plan for 2001-2004 entailed. Reach and assist all people with hearing loss who seek to improve their ability to communicate.
