Hi All,
Our next NFB chapter meeting on Tuesday, March 3rd at 6:30 p.m. is fast
approaching. The Other Barn is located at 5851 Robert Oliver Pl, Columbia,
MD.

During our February meeting we stuffed envelopes to advertise Basket Bingo
that is on March 13th. The chapter voted to have a joint Annual Picnic with
the NFB  of Maryland  parents of blind children division in September. We
had our traditional vote of what the basket Bingo menu for sale would be.
Sharon Maneki also talked about how Day in Annapolis went.

The tentative agenda for the chapter meeting is as follows
1.	Recite the NFB pledge - It is at the bottom of this email so
practice before the meeting
2.	Chapter business

- What happened at Washington Seminar

3.	signing letters for our Maryland legislative members asking them to
support the NFB of Maryland 2020 legislative priorities.

4.	A workshop on NFB Identity and NFB philosophy

5.	Presidential release
