GIRL SCOUT PROGRAM AT THE
DENVER CENTER FOR THE PERFORMING ARTS
in conjunction with
THE MIRACLE WORKER
NOVEMBER 22, 2008


HPWT members were asked to do a program prior to two performances of The Miracle Worker
for two groups of Girl Scouts who were attending the play.
We welcomed this chance to share our work raising puppies for Guide Dogs for the Blind
in order to help members of the blind community lead more normal lives,
plus we had a great time sharing our puppies with such an enthusiastic group of young people!
