[Cagdu] CAGDU ROCKS!

[Juliett Cody]

Hello CAGDU Community and all:

I want to thank everyone for your work and time. Your efforts made the second CAGDU Seminar what it was. A SUCCESS!
Here is a list of what we accomplished. 
* We educated two more police departments in California about the NFBC, and what role  CAGDU plays into  it. 
* We all learned about dog attacks etc...
 How to deal with such situations when they occur.
*We learned about the, State Board of Guide Dogs for the Blind. What it is,how they work and their history. Again we educated them about CAGDU. We will now be listed on their website. 
* Once again we connected with the taxi industries. We got another taxi company involved and continued our positive dialogue with them. Plus we got another donation! 

* The local  and out of town Federationists learned more about  the wonderful transportation BART. Likewise, BART learned about us.
* We were able to appreciate and thank a great puppy raiser who we impressed as much as she impressed us.
*   We heard positive comments about some national top officers, and their experiences with guide dogs.
 * our President Robert Stigile rapped up the successful events with positive words about the NFB, NFBC and CAGDU.

We had about thirties attendees, and about one third of them did not know about us. In a nut-shell we did a GREAT JOB in northern California!

Juliet Cody The very proud CAGDU President
