Message-ID: Happy Summer Fellow Students! We hope that wherever your travels took / are taking you enable you to gain enjoyment and excitement. For all of you that were able to join us in Dallas, thank you for sharing in another great convention. For those who were there in spirit; thank you for doing just that and we are excited to get to see you in Orlando next year! But, enough about the past and the future; we?re here now in the present, and as you all know, there?s a lot of work and exciting things to get done! With that, your nabs board is getting ready for another great year working with and serving you. As you probably know by now, the national Association of Blind Students operates year-round via its board of directors; many of us co-chair committees that are vital to the success of the division. On Sunday, August 8 at 7 p.m. eastern time We will be holding a conference call that we would like to invite all of you, our fellow students, to attend. On this call, we will introduce the various committees we have, what these committees do, and the board members who chair them. It is at this call where we are looking for any of you who have a wit for websites, feel for fundraising, eye for editing and writing or a mind for membership building who might have that itch to join a committee. Maybe you have an idea for a committee? Bring that too! We would appreciate your attendance, encourage your sharing of suggestions and ideas, but more than that, welcome your participation in all of our committees! So, come and join us, work with us, let us get to know each other and how we can change what it means to be a blind student together! Information: What: Getting to know the Nabs Committees When: Sunday, August 8. 7 p.m. EST. How: Call-in at 712.775.7100 (pass code 257963) Or listen via www.nabslinkaudio.org Thank you and we look forward to getting to know and work with you all.
