[blparent] Starting a Parent's Division

[Stacie Hardy - NFBHOU]

Hello Casandra,

I'm heavily involved in our affiliate. I'm president of our Houston 
chapter, secretary in our parents division along with many other areas. 
I'd love to meet you at convention and talk with you regarding your 
interest. Hope you will consider attending our Hands on Technology 
seminar on Monday, July 10th. My husband Raul and I've been heavily 
involved in putting this together.
