Campanian Enterprises, Inc.
Since we are often asked on the telephone and in person about the name of the organization (Campanian), a few words are in order. First of all, note the spelling of the name: "Campanian" and not "Companion." Note that the letter "a" appears three times; thus, the letter "o" does not appear in the name.  Several individuals have not been able to access our Website because the URL has not been entered correctly. Our Website address is: http://www.campanian.org

Our Name: our organization takes its name from a geographical area in southern Italy known as Campania. This geographical area extends from Naples, Pompeii, Herculaneum, Pozzuoli and Cumae in the south as far north toward Rome as Terracina and the boundaries of Latium. The Latin poet, Vergil, lived most of his life in the Naples area and wrote his famous epic, The Aeneid, while living here. The area was especially attractive to the Romans and the Roman emperors who often visited here because of the many amenities: sun shine, beaches and lush agricultural areas. The Cumaean peninsula, site of the famous Cave of the Sibyl, might be described as the "Las Vegas" of the ancient world. We took this name because for many years we have offered summer academic travel programs for teachers to Campania. It seemed only natural to continue to use the name "Campanian" as we have mounted our programs for the Blind and Visually Impaired. In fact, the first program which we offered for the Blind and Visually Impaired was to Campania - another good reason to use the name "Campanian."

Finally a comment about the pronunciation of our name: the pronunciation of "Campanian" sounds like: cam - pay - knee - en. The stress falls on "pay."

Important Information: Please note that the URL address for our Website has been changed to http://www.campanian.org. The old URL address http://w3.one.net/~campania/ is now outdated but should you load this old URL address you will receive a notice that the site has been moved. The new URL is listed on this page. All you need to do is click on the new URL address to go to our Website. Sorry for the inconvenience but our new URL address gives us our own domain site, will be less cumbersome and will make for easier access to our Website.

Millennial Year Travel Programs.
To inaugurate the new Millennium, we will be offering a variety of travel programs to commemorate this new beginning. Our Millennial Year Travel programs will begin with the Key West trip. There will be two programs to Key West, each different and each designed to appeal to individual interests and desires. Key West, the southernmost city in the continental United States, was home at various times to Ernest Hemingway, Tennessee Williams and Robert Frost and a White House vacation retreat for Truman, Eisenhower and Kennedy. Pirates frequented the seas around the Florida Keys and have left a rich history and colorful stories of adventure and romance. Historic gingerbread mansions, palm-studded streets, rocky shores, sandy beaches, hibiscus and bougainvillea enchant every visitor to this subtropical
island where history lives, a carnival spirit entices and legendary sunsets are mesmerizing. There will be leisure time for relaxing and enjoying the sunny and the sea breezes

Program #1: January 25- February 1, 2000.
This program will include visits to a variety of sites in Key West itself: Audubon House, Hemingway House, Truman White House and time at the beach. A day excursion to Dry Tortugas will be a special highlight of this week long program. Key West has a rich array of fine restaurants whose culinary delights we will enjoy. Relaxation and basking in the warm sunny weather will be the order of the day on this winter vacation in the southernmost area of the United States.

Program #2: February 1-7, 2000.
This program will include a selection of the famous homes and sites of Key West (listed above) but will offer participants the unique opportunity for extended activities: parasailing, deep-sea fishing, and ample time to enjoy the pleasures of the beach. A day excursion to Dry Tortugas will offer the opportunity for snorkeling in the emerald green waters of the Gulf of Mexico. On this program we will also enjoy the delicious cuisine of Key West's restaurants and feast on Key Lime pie.

For information and registration forms for our travel programs, please contact us by e-mail, e-mail or fax.

Congratulations to Judy Heller - Travel Agent for our programs for the Blind and Visually Impaired in Hawaii. The following award announcement appeared in Focus Magazine (April, 1999): Access Aloha Travel, Honolulu, Hawaii - Judy Heller: Best Client/Community Service Under Three Million. As part of this award, Judy traveled to Denver, Colorado to be honored and recognized for her agency's accomplishments. The following is quoted from Focus Magazine:
"Judy Heller, at the time an outside sales rep. had been hired to coordinate travel arrangements for the American With Disabilities Act Pacific Conference. Of the 15 or so speakers who were flown in to Hawaii for the conference, more than half used wheelchairs. Unfortunately, when they arrived in Honolulu they discovered that the airlines had failed them miserably.
"Virtually every chair except one was either broken or lost. The attitude at the airlines was despicable. 'It was mind-blowing,' Heller says.
"That experience, along with the persistent encouragement of a friend who is executive director of a Honolulu service agency for the disabled, prompted Heller to launch her full-service travel agency, Access Aloha Travel, in 1995. She was an industry veteran with more than 20 years' experience who was enjoying semi-retirement and, in her words, 'Playing as an outside sales rep.'
"Opening Access Aloha Travel, which serves a full range of clients, but specializes in travel for the disabled, changed all that. In the agency's first 18 months, Heller worked harder than ever, logging 60 hours or more a week. Today, her agency has two employees and grosses $1 million in annual sales, about one-third of it from clients with disabilities. Heller's agency donates half of its modest profits to the Hawaii Center for Independent Living, an organization that helps people with disabilities find jobs and homes.
"Since her eye-opening experience in 1994, Heller also has taken up the fight for the rights of the disabled. She works with travel suppliers to help them improve their services and facilities, and lobbies for changes at the local and state levels.
"For example, she has successfully encourage the introduction of beach wheelchairs in Hawaii, and for three years lobbied the state to lift quarantine laws for guide dogs. In June 1998 her efforts met with success, and four months later Heller hosted her first inbound blind group. Once again she was in for a learning experience. Heller served as a guide for two group members during the eight-day trip. 'It was one of the most humbling experience I have ever gone through.' she says.
"One of the most fulfilling aspects of her work, Heller says, is opening up the possibility of travel to individuals who believe that disabilities make travel impossible. She tells of a recent experience when she spoke to a group of post-polio clients at a hospital. 'There were several very affluent people in the room, who had deteriorated in the last three to five years, who just didn't feel they could travel again. After talking to them and explaining what could be done [with special airplane seating and the like], they started traveling again. It's wonderful to see somebody come out of hiding.'"

Islam And Guide Dogs.
A situation in Cincinnati (Ohio) where a guide dog user was denied transportation by a Muslim cab driver on religious grounds has recently gained national attention. There is a move afoot to try to get a statement drafted by respected religious scholars and authorities in the Islamic community regarding the true position of Islam relating to contact with working dogs, such as guide dogs. This statement could be made available to guide dog users and to the Muslim community at large. If you have ever been denied service by a Muslim on religious grounds because of the presence of your guide dog, please E-mail a detailed description of the incident to Mary Otten (e-mail: mary@smart.net). Mary Otten is a practicing Muslim, and a guide dog user. Reprinted from The Phone Book (May, 1999). Phil Scovell, Editor.

Performers' unions to educate industry.
Three of the largest unions representing the entertainment industry have introduced a special card designed to educate the industry about working with performers with disabilities. The Actors Equity, American Federation of Television and Radio Artists and Screen Actors Guild introduced the Industry Resource card, which they say "is everything you always wanted to know about working with performers with disabilities but were afraid to ask." The two-sided laminated card, in Spanish and English, is being distributed to production companies, talent agents, casting offices and other industry related groups. The card provides answers to questions, key contact numbers for helping arrange accommodations that may be needed and, hopefully, more understanding of the fact that disabled actors can and do work. Screen Actors Guild president Richard Masur says, "Our goal is to acknowledge the many disabled performers working in movies, television, theatre, commercials and industrials. These actors are not limited by their wheelchairs, hearing disabilities, guide dogs, interpreters or by the set's cables, scenery, cameras or stages. They are only limited by other people who think these talented professionals can't do the job," he added. According to Gail Williamson, Talent and Industry Coordinator of the Media Access Office (a non-profit advocacy group dealing with performers with disabilities), 52 million Americans, or 19 percent of the general public, have a disability. While 13 percent of the disabled are in the everyday workforce, less than 1 percent appear in the media. The Screen Actors Guild lists 650 performers with disabilities nationally, according to Jae Jae Simmons, SAG/NY's Affirmative Action Administrator. "We recognize that it's not always possible for producers and directors to take advantage of the talented actors who have disabilities. The Affirmative Action policy of the Guild calls for these performers to have the same opportunity and access to audition for roles as others,'' Simmons added. Reprinted from UPI (New York April 27, 1999).

Braille Labels on Wine Labels.
"If there are bumps on the label, it must be Chapoutier.  Reasoning that blind customers want the same information that other wine lovers look for on a bottle, Michel Chapoutier, a well-known maker and shipper of Rhone wines, has put Braille labels on all his premium wines, including appellations like Hermitage, Crozes-hermitage, Condrieu, St.-Joseph, Cote Rotie and Chateauneuf-du-Pape. That adds up to nearly two million bottles each year.
"Reading the Braille, customers can learn the type and name of the wine, the vintage date, the name of the winery, the town where the wine was made, and the color of the wine, a vital piece of information, since some of the appellations come in both red and white.
"Mr. Chapoutier.... came up with the idea of Braille labels in 1994. Working with the French Association for the Blind, he developed a Braille label for his Monier de la Sizeranne Hermitage, a dense, smoky, long-lived red wine from the northern Rhone. The wine was a fitting choice for the new label the Association for the Blind was founded by Maurice de la Sizeranne, whose family once the vineyard that gives the wine its name."

Travel
The world
 So big a geographical region
Many countries with flags unfurled
 All forming a multi-people legion
An enormous ball with much to enjoy
 Choosing where to start
Then map will lay it out before you as if a toy
 Easier it now becomes to chart
Planning a vacation
 Having a purpose is good
Finding the country's location
 Is better understood
Details are sought
 Transportation becomes a factor
Tickets and brochures are bought
 Now place take center stage like an actor
But to have success
 Local tours add fun and zip
And good hotels lend an address
 For a real good trip. (Donald Metcoff)

The Things I Can Do With My Cane (To the tune of "My Favorite Things")
Traveling downtown, or out in the 'burbs,
Crossing the street and finding the curb,
If you're still wondering, please let me explain.

I use it when finding a street intersection,
Establishing landmarks and object detection,
If you're confused, don't think I'm insane,
These are the things I can do with my cane.

I used to crash things, sometimes smash things
And end up black and blue.
But now with my cane, I'm no longer in pain,
And feel like I'm all brand new!

Checking to see if the curb's parallel,
Catching a bus, or boarding the El.
I even use it when I take the train.
These are the things I can do with my cane!

Following grasslines and finding the door,
There was a time when this was quite a chore.
But please don't be thinking these tasks are a strain.
These are the things I can do with my cane!

Escalators, elevators
These I do with ease.
I simply unfold it - in my hand I hold it.
And travel wherever I please!!!

Blindness in Literature: Examples of Depictions and Attitudes by Jacob Twersky (American Foundation for the Blind: New York, 1955).
This interesting book is well worth reading for the historical (and literary) depiction of the blind and visually impaired. To quote a short paragraph from the introduction: "This study is concerned with examples of the physically blind as portrayed in the literature of Western Civilization. One aim is to trace the extent to which this literature reveals an evolution in attitudes toward the blind. Logically, sightless characters in literature do not only reflect a given period, but also constitute a cause, or secondary cause, of attitudes toward the blind, making particular attitudes more widespread in the given period, as well as influencing succeeding periods. And another aim of this study is to provide information on sightless characters in literature in the hope that this will help clarify the extent to which such characters constitute a cause of attitudes." Twersky divides his subject into four chapters: (1) Before 1784; (2) 1784-1873; (3) 1783-1914 and (4) After 1914.

Brief History Lessons:
A little late to celebrate this year, but have a party anyway! April 21st was a very important day for the Romans. On this day in 753 BCE, Rome was founded and every year the Romans celebrated this event at the Festival of the Parilia, the oldest of the many festivals celebrated by the Romans. Pales, the deity whose name the festival bears, was a common deity of Italian pasture land. Various ritualistic rites formed part of the festival: a sheep-fold was decked with green boughs and a great wreath was hung on the gate; at the earliest glimmer of daybreak, the shepherd purified the sheep. This was done by sprinkling and sweeping the fold; then a fire was made of heaps of straw, olive branches and laurel, to give good omens by the crackling, and through this fire the shepherds leapt and the flocks were driven. Sulfur was also burned to drive away the evil spirits. After this ritual ceremony, the shepherd brought offerings to Pales; among these were pails of milk and other types of foods. Following a rustic meal, the shepherd prayed to the deity to avert all evil from himself and the flocks. The prayer was repeated four times as the shepherd looked to the east, wetting his hands with the morning dew.

A May Festival (not too late to recognize and celebrate, if you wish) is the Ambarvalia. Celebrated on May 29th, this religious procession around the land of the early Roman community was celebrated to purify the crops from evil influences. In this religious festival, a bull, sheep and a pig were driven around the perimeter of your property (or the boundaries of a city or state). The attendees carried garlands and olive branches and chanted as they walked. Three times the celebrants walked around the land and at the end of the third round the victims were sacrificed and the following solemn prayer was given: "Father Mars, I pray and beseech thee to be willing and propitious to me, my household, and my slaves; with this object in mind, I have caused this threefold sacrifice to be driven around my farm and land. I pray thee keep, avert and turn from us all disease, seen and unseen, all desolation, ruin, damage, and unseasonable influence; I pray thee give increase to the fruits, the corn, the vines, and the plantations, and bring them to a prosperous issue. Keep also in safety the shepherds and their flocks, and give good health and vigor to me, my house and household. To this end it is, as I have said - namely, for the purification and making due lustration of my farm, my land cultivated and uncultivated - that I pray thee to bless this threefold sacrifice of sucklings. O Father Mars, to this same end I pray thee bless this threefold sacrifice of sucklings."
Of all the Roman festival this is the only one which can be said with any truth to be still surviving to this day. When the Italian priest leads his flock around the fields with the ritual of the Litania in Rogation week he is doing very much what the ancient Romans did in Rome and with the same purpose. In other countries, such as England, the same custom was taken up by the Church; the boundaries of the parish were fixed in the memory of the young, and the wrath of God was averted by an act of duty from, man, cattle and crops. It was a general custom to go round the boundaries and limits of the parish on one of the three days before Ascension Day. During this celebration, the Minister was wont to deprecate the vengeance of God, beg a blessing on the fruits of the earth, and preserve the rights and properties of the parish.

A Roman Joke from Aulus Gellius, an ancient writer:
The citizens of Sybaris in southern Italy were notorious for their easy living. A citizen of Sybaris went to nearby Croton. When he saw a man there working hard, he got a hernia from just watching. Then, he went back to Sybaris, told his cousin about the hard-working man in Croton, and his cousin got a hernia just from listening. Who says that the ancient Romans did have a sense of humor!!!

Have You Seen Louis L'Bear?
In the upper Midwest (and many other places), a teddy bear named Louis L'Bear (and his cousin named Louis L'Two) have been traveling widely, spreading the word about braille literacy. These bears read braille themselves, having learned it from their great-grandfather who learned it from a blind church organist in France.
The traveling bears, the idea of Dr. Marie Knowlton, are visiting children all over the country who read braille. They carry braille letters introducing themselves that go something like this: "Hi, my name is Louis L'Bear. I read braille just like you do. I am on a trip to visit other children who read braille. Please pass me along to another braille reading friend of yours but also send a letter home to my parents so they know where I am and how I am doing. Thank you. Louis."
Mama L'Bear has been reassured many times that Louis is safe and having very diverse adventures. He has been provided with a warm sweatshirt for the cold weather, attended slumber parties, and gone dog sledding. The students, who range from first graders to high school juniors, often request a return visit from Louis. The letters all come back to Mama L'Bear in braille, sometimes with an help from the teacher.
Louis has been traveling about two years now. Only twice has one of these two travelers returned to Mama L'Bear. Marie states she doesn't even know all the places Louis has been! Since Louis travels so widely, it is difficult to track his whereabouts, and visits are rather by chance. A visit must be requested through the MDVI Newsletter in Minnesota.
Marie suggests that a whole family of bears could start traveling around the country from child to child spreading the message that braille is fun. For more information on Louis L'Bear, contact Marie Knowlton, 233 Burton Hall, 178 Pillsbury Dr. S.E., Minneapolis, MN 55455; phone: 612-624-1859.
