Veggie sausages will be available on request. Bring drinks or a dessert to share. Amanda’s house is a 10-minute walk from the Dunn Loring station on the orange line. She also has a fenced yard for any guide dogs that want to get out of harness and party along. Prost! Sign up here: Oktoberfest Party RSVP

White Cane Day Family Goalball Event

· MWABA is excited to host a fun community goalball event in celebration of White Cane Day. This event will take place on Saturday, October 18th from 10:00-1:00 at the Columbia Heights Community Center. It is open to anyone who is interested in trying out goalball, including our regular adult players, youth, and family and friends! We’ll come together for an open gym style of play and rotate anyone who is interested in playing in and out in a series of practice games. This will be a great opportunity for parents or siblings of youth participants to get suited up in pads and eyeshades and experience the sport. In the spirit of White Cane Day, this event will be all about building community, raising awareness, and having fun. Please find more information and sign-up at the link below. The deadline to sign-up is October 15th.
