Even if you didn't get the first shot in May, St. Benedict's would be delighted to give you your first on Friday.

Have you ever wondered what’s in the Pool Room? How do I get to the Legacy Garden? What happens in the Braille Library when no one is around? Well, on Saturday, June 26 you’ll have an opportunity to roam the CCB and explore like you never have before. The scavenger hunt is the “Fun Activity”, but what’s the “Skills Training?” Here’s where we get to work on our alternative techniques! Everyone will be using sleepshades, canes, and all of the clues will be in Braille! Don’t worry if you are new to using these non-visual skills, we will have plenty of blind mentors to assist throughout the day. And we will be serving pizza after the scavenger hunt. Please make sure to tell us ahead of time if you have any dietary restrictions.
