VIRTUAL PROGRAM | Local Author Series: Thriving Against the Odds

Local author, Reyna Bradford, invites you to a conversation about life with animals, love of Kansas, and her first published book, "In My Hands: Stories of the Land and Animals I Love but Can't See." As a blind hobby farmer and dog sports enthusiast, Reyna lives a unique life and welcomes you to share in it for this fun and inspiring hour. Included will be discussion of her first book, readings from the braille copy, a video of her in action with her animals, a sneak peek at her next project to be released later in March, and Q & A with participants. Reyna will also share how she functions in everyday life while keeping up with her dairy goats, show dogs, and other pets.

Join us to get inspired, have a good laugh, and learn how to...

• Overcome challenges
• Pursue your dreams
• Refuse to take "no" for an answer
