(See link above.) For simplicity and reduced work, I'm going to copy those entries for this newsletter summary. The format is a little different from before. Please let me know if you see any problems. If you know of anyone wanting to announce a Deaf/Hard of Hearing event in central Texas, please send them to: <a href="mailto:info@austindeafevents.com">info@austindeafevents.com</a> (By the way, if they could put their info in the same plain text style as the calendar entries -- What, When, Where, Description -- that would be incredibly helpful.) Thank you. --David 2) DeafNation just released their 2010 Expo schedule, and I don't see Austin on the list. Maybe you'll want to contact them to see what's up with that? <a href="http://www.deafnation.com/">http://www.deafnation.com/</a> 3) Austin Community College has released a new brochure describing their services for Deaf and hard of hearing students. <a href="http://bit.ly/AccDeafHohBrochure2009">http://bit.ly/AccDeafHohBrochure2009</a> 4) Am told that Legacy Mutual Mortgage is working with TSD on a program to reach out to the Deaf community in Texas by offering a $500 credit towards closing costs on a new home purchase or refinance, and they will send a child at the Texas School for the Deaf to summer camp with every loan closed.
