The  way teleconference call etiquette works, when meeting starts everyone
will please *6 themselves to mute until you have a question, this means
officers as well.  To unmute *6 again allows you to talk at the appropriate
time.

 

You will be recognized by your last name. I will ask one of the officers to
keep track of whom asked the question.

 

 

Agenda for tonight's meeting:

 

*       Introduction of all the officers for 2014-2016 year.

The National Federation of the Blind knows that blindness is not the
characteristic that defines you or your future. Every day we raise the
expectations of blind people, because low expectations create obstacles
between blind people and our dreams. You can have the life you want;
blindness is not what holds you back.
