CHILDREN'S EASTER EGG HUNT March 22, 2008 |

2006 Egg Hunt |
||
| Each
year, Qwest volunteers host an Easter Egg hunt for visually impaired
children. The fun includes hunting for Easter eggs that beep so the
blind children can find them, playing T-ball (the balls also beep), a
visit from the Easter Bunny, and of course, meeting some very special
dogs--our Guide Puppies! What a wonderful way to introduce these kids
to the prospect of using a Guide Dog for mobility when they are old
enough while socializing our pups with some wonderful youngsters. Plus,
it's just a lot of fun! Afterwards, volunteers & raiser enjoy a
thank you breakfast. |

kids loved meeting our puppies and finding about about Guide Dogs for
