The Accessibility Advocate – October 2016

October 21, 2016

 

From the President’s Corner!

 

I hope everyone is doing well and settled back in the routine of kids back in school.  My son and I are getting there.  On another note, we just had a scare with Hurricane Matthew, but were fortunate to be spared any serious damage.  We hope that those who were hit fared well.

As we can continue to evolve, SNG is always expanding our areas which we are able to service.  Special Needs Group has recently added the port of Mobile, Alabama.  Beginning in November, Mobile will be the homeport of the Carnival Fantasy.  The vessel will feature sailings to Mexico.

Please check our website http://www.specialneedsgroup.com periodically for updates and any special promotions.

Thank you again for your ongoing support as we continue to work in achieving our mission of Delivering an Accessible World®.

 

Keep Smilin’,
