is fast approaching. We will meet at Waterloo Park, 6951 Old Waterloo Rd,
Elkridge, Md.  

During the June meeting our chapter hosted the Maryland state affiliate

house. The chapter broke for the summer and will meet again at their annual
picnic on September 8th.

The tentative agenda for the meeting is as follows
1.	Discuss upcoming Tino's fund raiser on September 30th
2. discuss NFB national convention that took place in Las Vegas, NV and the
next one in Houston, TX
3.	October chapter meeting will be Jerry Price talking about LBPH.
