My acceptance to Guide Dogs for the Blind

June 22, 2009

Well… I know I usually only post weekly, but this was such an awesome event, I just had to blog about it.
Almost an hour ago, I received an e-mail from someone at Guide Dogs, saying that my application had been “tentatively
accepted”. Apparently I’ll be there from April 26 to May 22, 2010.
For any of you that are interested, the following is the e-mail I got (minus the signature):

Dear Jason,
We are pleased to confirm that your application for a Guide Dog has been tentatively accepted and a place is reserved for
you in our San Rafael class that begins Monday, April 26 and graduates Saturday, May 22, 2010.

We will be sending you a reminder in December along with a medical report form since the report we have on file will be a
year old in March. If you have moved, we will need to visit you in your new area to verify that you routes established.
Once we have received the updated information, we will send you a pre-class packet. The packet will include the Guide Dog
User Contract, dorm information, a class syllabus and a suggested list of items you may want to plan to bring with you. We
will book travel arrangements for you about 4 weeks prior to your class date and send you additional information.

We are looking forward to having you with next Spring!
