>A friend of mine broke her hip a couple of years ago and is now a wheel

>Mexico and would love to go to National this year.
>The problem is, she needs a pusher, perhaps someone who can  take her to
the
>meetings, the exhibit hall and the banquet.  She'll need assistance
probably
>every 2 hours during the general session.
>She already contacted Mark R at the National office and he said, even
though
>they will have UPS volunteers, these volunteers can not be scheduled for a
>specific person nor are they allowed to b in the guest room area.
>My friend's name is Kay boyd.  If you know of someone who might be able to
>help, preferably a volunteer.  Dick suggested a teen looking for something
>to do.   Contact me and I will share her telephone number with you. The
>sooner I find this person the better as she still has to make travel
>arrangements.
