<div style="margin-top:4.5pt;margin-bottom:4.5pt"><font color="yellow">There is nothing like the energy and excitement of attending the annual national convention of the National Federation of the Blind in person. however, for various reasons it’s not possible
for everyone to make it every year. If you can't be with your Federation family in Las Vegas this year, however, you can still get in on the action by accessing our live stream. We stream the National Federation of the Blind Board of Directors meeting, all
general sessions, and the convention banquet. You can find the streaming schedule and links to streams in multiple formats (iTunes, Winamp, etc.) on our live stream page at this URl:<br>

is active.</font></div>
<div style="margin-top:4.5pt;margin-bottom:4.5pt"><font color="yellow">We will miss you in vegas, but please be part of the convention by listening to the live stream. You could even get a group of friends together and host a banquet listening party so you
can all enjoy President Riccobono’s banquet address, the announcement of the scholarship awards, and other banquet highlights together. If you’re listening, and especially if you host a banquet listening party, please let us know about it on social media with
