Once again this year, Tandem-Aid is taking a tandem tour, criss-crossing Europe. This time we're headed for Paris. France doesn't need help with education needs for the blind, so this time we're collecting donations for other club activities and working to increase Tandem-Aid's visibility.

In connection with the trip, we'll also be having Braille readings at
various places in Germany.
