FSA Accessibility (please forward/repost)
Hi! I'm Del! You may know me as the person who brought FSG the great mobility aid known as the Short Bus!
Well - that was just the beginning.
I am compiling a list for the FSA coordinators, the movers and shakers, about all sorts of ways we can make Beltane, Free Spirit Gathering, Fires of Venus, and even Mythical Journeys more disability friendly.
So if you have ideas, thoughts, dreams, complaints, or suggestions, please send them to me at queendelirium at yahoo dot com. I will add them to the list.
Be creative! Think big! I mean, I've already listed "A Wheelchair lift for the pool." I know that may not happen in our lifetimes, but even just making people aware of ways the event isn't truly accessible can be enough, for now. And you never know what may garner enough support for fund raising, or donations, or something falling out of the sky.
So please email your suggestions to me, and I will add them to the mega list.
Thanks for your time and attention!
Edited to Add: I know LJ comments are really convienent, but I don't want my personal journal to be a place where the dialog between FSA and attendees happen. Please email me your suggestions, and when the list is ready for submission I'll be sure to let everyone who made suggestions read it before I submit it.
