We had a successful year at the Orange County Fair! We gave out over 1100 of our customized sign language booklets over the 23 day of the fair! We met new friends and caught up with old. We are now in the process of going through the requests that we collected and putting together the info about the Richard Roehm Memorial Ranch project. We are moving forward at an incredible speed. We do need to raise funds and if you have any money you can donate to help us move forward then that's great! We would love you to donate money, If you don't have money and still want to help I have great news! There are many other ways to help us.
- We collect things! ink cartridges, toner cartridges, cell phones, digital cameras, gps, and Cambel"s Labels for Education. You can go around to your friends, family, and bushiness and collect these things for us.
- Donate items: We take computers, cars, clothes, and many other items.
- Use GoodSearch to benefit the Orange County Deaf Advocacy Center, just go to http://www.goodsearch.com and when it asks which charity you want to support type in Orange County Deaf Advocacy Center. The Firefox plugin works really well and I have raised over $1 using it for only some of my searches.

Nita came by yesterday and she may have found a place for our trailer which it is bit further down on Washington Ave and it is easy for Sharky to and from to work on it. She said she will call Beth about it. However, Beth can’t talk due to fever, if Nita can call that place and let me know. I will be here most of the day today AND tomorrow.
