 New School Year Begins Week of August 18ENROLLMENT FOR FALL 2008 AT AN ALL-TIME HIGH During the past 12 months the Meyer Center's physical facilities have undergone extensive changes. Among these are a spacious new occupational and physical therapy gym, new a new speech therapy department, and two new classrooms which will be completed just in time for the start of the new school year on August 18. This brings the total number of classrooms at the Center to eight! Thanks to the patience of our students' parents and the fortitude of our staff, the Center has been able to remain open throughout the renovations process. As we progress in Phase II of the renovations, we are so excited to be able to provide life-changing therapy and education to more children in need. We are very grateful for the continuing support of our friends at the Greenville Woodworker's Guild who have fulfilled classroom and therapy equipment needs adroitly, as always. These fine men are among many wonderful people throughout the Upstate who do so much to care for children with disabilities. Because of you, the Center can continue to provide "hope and help" for special children in our community. Save the Date!

You Can Help a Child to HearTopping the Center's wish list is equipment for the "Therapeutic Listening" program. The program uses specially altered CD's to help children with listening difficulties and sensory processing delays. We currently have four children using this program, but many more could benefit if additional equipment was available. Each tape costs about $40 and a pair of headphones, $120. Donations of any amount toward this need would be greatly appreciated. Gifts in honor of a friend or loved one will be acknowledged with a special card. For more information, call Cheryl Stachniak at 250-0005, ext. 219.
