I first learned of this last fall when I attended a pep rally before a college football game.
Featured at the pep rally was a group of amazing young people, The Ohio State School for the Blind. What is especially exciting about this school is that their marching band has been selected to march in the 2010 Rose Bowl parade in Pasadena, California. Yes, folks, I said march. Assisted by sighted marchers, this band consisting of 17 members, will be heading cross-country to be the first blind band to march in the legendary parade.
Ali Hooper is a midwestern girl livin' in the 'burbs with her boys (hubby, baby, puppy). She blogs about the not-so-sunny side of motherhood at non-maternal instincts, although she loves showing off pictures of her adorable son at her family blog, The Hoopers.

This is great! I've sent the article to several of my blind coworkers.
I also love that one of the events they play for during a normal year is the deaf-school football games!
