Vision Screening Efforts in October

October has taken us here and there providing free vision screening to the children of Southeast Alaska.

Here's what  we've done:

• Gustavus Elementary:  screened 57 with 19 referrals
• Recycle for Sight Drive (our annual drive to collect eyeglasses):  screened 7
• Gastineau Elementary (pre-school, Kindergarten, 1st):  screened 120 with 14 referrals
• Early Learning Fair (for babies and toddlers):  screened 17 with 0 referrals
• Hoonah Elementary:  cancelled by public health nurse
• Harborview Elementary (preschool, kindergarten, 1st):  screened 114 with 23 referrals
• Harborview Montesorri:  screened 46 with 6 referrals
• Wrangell Elementary:   screened 114 with 12 referrals

That's a total of 475 children screened with 74 referrals.  

Thanks to Lions Tom Dawson, Mike Norton, Donna and Bob Hurley, and Soapy Lingle for taking time out of your busy schedules to do this screening.
