2nd Thursday Support Meeting, October: A Member's Vision Loss Story

  • Mt Nittany Residences 301 Rolling Ridge Drive State College, PA, 16801 United States (map)

October 8: Laura Shaffer will share her vision loss story.

PLEASE NOTE: The date of this meeting, October 8, is early in the month but is indeed the second Thursday of the month. Be sure to mark your calendars.

Our 2nd Thursdays lunch group meets on the second Thursday of each month at Mount Nittany Residences, rain, snow, or shine. If you are new to vision loss or are an old-hand, this is a good place to be. We always share a simple lunch, learn from one another, and enjoy each other’s company. 


  • When: The second Thursday of each month, 11:30 am - 1:00 pm.

  • Where: Mt Nittany Residences, 301 Rolling Ridge Dr, State College, in the community room on the first floor.

  • Details: Lunch is provided and is “on the house.” 


2nd Thursdays is a collaboration between the Bureau of Blindness and Visual Services, and the Sight-Loss Support Group. Staff members from both organizations attend the meetings.
