[blparent] National nfb convention

[Melissa Ann Riccobono]

The convention agenda will also be posted online at some point closer to the
convention.  I believe this is usually sometime around June 10 or so.  If
Gab likes kids and was interested I'm sure she is old enough to help out at
NFB Camp which is the child care.  She wouldn't have to help everyday, but
this would give her something constructive to do while you are in
sessions--since she is too old to be a child who is cared for.  There are
also a lot of other youth activities at convention, but I know obviously
many of them are geered toward blind kids.  Still, you may want to email
Emily Gibbs at the Jernigan Institute 
egibbs at nfb.org
to see what is on the horizon and if there are activities Gab could
participate in.  
I hope this helps.
Melissa

Mrs. Jernigan sent out a tentative schedule to committee chairs, and Blind
Parents is listed in its usual slot, 7:30 Sunday evening.  I hope you can
join us!
