I'm passing this information along. It's from NOAH, the National Organization for Albinism and Hypopigmentation. This is NOT an HPS Network event. Some people get confused, but the HPS Network is a separate organization from NOAH. We are, however, very friendly and I know that no matter what type of albinism you have, HPS, CHS or OCA whatever - we all have some of the same issues.
These events are designed for adults with albinism and are meant to be fun! So, I hope the HPS community, where able, joins in!
