After watching Mike’s Bring Back the Light vlog, I had to share this story that popped into my mind two weeks ago. Bring your coffee mugs–and flashlights–and join me at my table! (I hope you enjoy my first attempt at story-telling.)

Comments, which include constructive criticisms are welcome. Destructive criticisms and personal attacks will not be published. Thank you for viewing my vlog!

FYI: Voice interpreters were indeed provided for the presentations which heavily emphasized bilingualism. It is my opinion that the information presented is quite relevant to people of varying backgrounds including hearing or deaf parents, Deaf people,and educators.

The brief summaries I gave of each topic presented barely mined the treasure trove of information I received.

My apologies for not providing a transcription of this vlog at the present time, and I hope I will be able to provide that at a future date. Thank you for your patience.

This vlog is an expression of thanks to everyone involved in the DBC Milwaukee convention: Jill and John Lestina, Patti Durr, other volunteers for the children’s program; Jack Barr of WAD: DBC Core members-both former and current; the 700 participants.

Upon viewing my vlog, I realized I had forgotten to thank the presenters who laboured in preparation to present excellent topics to all of us. The following presenters are: Dr. Barbara Kannapell, Dr. MJ Bienvenu, Bobbie Beth Scoggins, Dr. Genie Gertz, Dr. Patrick Boudreault (a fellow Canadian!), and Dr. Marlon Kuntze. MANY THANKS!!

My next vlog will discuss the presented topics which placed a heavy emphasis on bilingualism (ASL and English)

Comments are welcome. Destructive criticism as well as personal attacks will not be published. Thank you for visiting!
