Mobility Challenge - Without Sight!

SRQ Story Project

Lighthouse Vision Loss Education Center | 7318 North Tamiami Trail | Sarasota, Florida 34243

Lighthouse Vision Loss Education Center is planning a different, fun way to celebrate White Cane Awareness Day on October 19. They are teaming up with merchants in Downtown Sarasota to stage a Mobility Challenge. Small groups will follow one of several trails and stop to perform tasks which illustrate life without sight, learning how to overcome vision challenges.

The community event will begin at the Selby Library Auditorium at 10 am and move onto the streets from 10:30am to Noon. Each route is a few blocks long, with instructors and volunteers to assist along the way.

Participants are encouraged to create their own team comprised of family, friends and coworkers, or come alone and join up with other team members at check-in. This is not a race, just a fun event. There are no cash jackpot prizes, just bragging rights and a few door prizes.

Registration is free. (Although donations are welcome.)
