This group is inspired by an experience I had a few years back when I went to a deaf hockey camp. The camp only lasted for one week, but it felt like I had found another family by the end of it. So this is a group for anyone who is D/HoH or who has an interest in meeting up with D/HoH. We can celebrate something that we have in common and that has made us the people we are today. The location is flexible as it is not where we meet, but the people we meet that is important.

In essence. The root of ideas derive from an individual. The people who can embody the philosophy that dreams are more abundant than reality hold the key to it's success. To understand and envision that one person's idea is their brain child and maintain the respect and loyalty to adhere to that one cluster of thought, the visionary.
