Bring your cameras!Here is a 'playbook of what will happen tomorrow!Dear Team Leaders: The Autism Society of Broward also invites you to stop by our two tent tables, one inside the stadium and the other outside of the stadium.  We have plenty of flyers and thought it would be a good idea for the school leaders, teachers, and autism coaches to take with them bundles of 50 to give to the kids, 'backpack them', so they give them to their family or have them available at your school.  So stop by and say " Hi " and tell us you are a team leader and ask about a bundle of flyers!Thank You for all you do!Hugh Keough, PresidentAutism Society of Broward  Dear WalkAbouters,It’sthe day we’ve all been waiting for, and it’s finally here (almost)!
