If you live in northern California and are interested in things that matter to the blind community in our region, this is the list for you. NFB, CCB, or unaffiliated -- we want all of your opinions.

This is the one place in cyberspace where blind northern Californians can all meet to learn about events, conventions, cultural and recreational activities, as well as buy/sell/trade access equipment.

Be as boisterous, confrontational and gossipy as you like. This list has one rule only: we confine our scope to only those things which are happening in northern California. So please, no national appeals, cross-posts of news from other regions, or national political matters.

So, if you know which group is going whitewater rafting, or who is holding a fundraiser, or who is selling a tandem bike, post it here. Learn of the new schedule for the Capitol Amtrak? Let us know. Figured out how to use the 7F bus to get to SFO? Share the wealth. Having trouble with a local Rehab or Social Security counselor? We want to know.

So whether you're in San Jose, Oakland, Sacramento or Stockton, the Blind-Norcal wants to hear from you about what matters to the local blind community.
