Posted on June 9, 2020

At our video-conference meeting on June 2nd, Fairfax Lions enjoyed an excellent guest speaker – Ms. Bonnie OLooney, of the NoVA Resource Center for Deaf & Hard of Hearing Persons (NVRC,   https://nvrc.org ).

Ms Bonnie OLeary, NVRC, Speaks to Fairfax Lions via Video Conference

NVRC programs bring information and resources to people with hearing loss, introducing them to a range of possible solutions to improve the quality of their lives.   Bonnie helped us understand the physics of hearing, environments where we may be trying to improve our hearing, and various technology solutions to improving hearing.  Over our Zoom hookup, we could all hear great!
