Each month Guiding Eyes for the Blind holds a graduation ceremony to honor the current class of visually impaired graduates’ successful completion of training with their new Guiding Eyes dogs. It is truly a time of celebration for the graduates’ families and friends; puppy raisers; friends of the organization; volunteers; and staff. Following the ceremony tours of the campus are available and refreshments are served.
