    Vaccination Day - Maureen shows us her band-aid

    It’s the second-shot clinic this Friday! For those 29 individuals who received their first Moderna vaccination at our walk-in clinic on May 14, this is your scheduled day to complete the COVID-19 vaccination. You are expected!

    The clinic will be giving jabs between 1 and 4 p.m. in our parking lot once again. Sorry, no food truck this time!

    More great news! Even if you didn’t get the first shot in May, St. Benedict’s would be delighted to give you your first on Friday. But you need to contact Maureen Nietfeld ASAP to be sure that there will be a dose for you. We’ve already got a list of first-dosers for this week, so that we will have a third clinic to give these folks a second shot in July.

    Contact Maureen at 303-778-1130, ext. 233, or email mnietfeld@cocenter.org

    Kicking Off Summer with a Scavenger Hunt


    June 26, 2021

    What better way to kick off a great summer than joining your friends from across Denver for a fun time at the Colorado Center for the Blind! 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.
