[CapChapOhio] Convention

[Richard Payne]

I hope all of those who wish could participate thanks for offering this opportunity. I will tell you that the hotel is full, and the spirit is very high.

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 live the life you want; blindness is not what holds you back.

Hello capital chapter!

 

I wanted to reach out to all of you about the national convention. Unfortunately, this year, no one from our chapter was able to attend. This is sad, but we understand. Many of us are very busy this time of year. However, I did want to remind all of you that all of the general sessions, the board meeting, the banquet, and some other activities are available virtually. Plea Please go to nfb.org and register if you have not already done so. Even though we can’t be there in person, we can definitely participate in the activities and hear what all is going on.

 

There was some talk of all of us getting together on Thursday night to share the banquet.  Jon and Kathy Diakogeorgiou graciously offered their home as a venue. It has not been 100% decided yet whether we are going to do this. Please reply to this message and let us know if this is something that all of you might be interested in. If we have enough participants, we can do this and share the banquet together. If not, that is OK . I have talked to many of you about this, but most were unsure if you wanted to attend. Please let us know if you would be available and would like to come. We should decide within the next day or so to be fair to John and Kathy.

 

Everybody, take care and enjoy the convention!

 

Also, as a reminder, we typically do not have a Chapter meeting in July. So our next meeting will be on August 12.
