The Rosa Lee Show had its first mini-tour in the state of Indiana/Kentucky last week.  Some of you may know that Indiana is a state that holds dear to my heart.  It was where I spent most of my youth living as a student at Indiana School for the Deaf (ISD). It is also a state where my mother was born and raised.  Both of my parents were classmates at ISD as well as my older brother and I. I was also reminded by my grandparents’ former students living in Fort Wayne that my grandparents also worked as a teacher at ISD before moving down south (Florida). It was definitely a treat to revisit my old stomping grounds and to reunite with my old friends.

The tour was organized by Indiana Association of the Deaf and it was sponsored by InTRAC and Purple (formerly known as HOVRS). For each city that we toured, all the profits would go to local deaf youth programs such as Miss Deaf Indiana, Mini-deaf Olympics, Youth Leadership Camp, and so on. I was honored to do five shows within four days, touring through the cities of Fort Wayne, Mishawaka, Louisville (KY), and Indianapolis.  Although it was exhausting and hectic (not to mention, freezing cold!), it was a lot of fun.

Below are some pictures taken while I was there. Enjoy.
