Hello Chris,

 

I apologize for not making the last meeting. My church event (youth
convention) was concluding on that day and I did not get home until after 8
pm.

 

I appreciate the report. Please keep up the good work.

 

I hope that soon we will talk about the effort to atrack children and their
families.

 

Much Love,

Walter

Sunday June 28

 

Hello All.

 

Here is a rundown of our chapter membership committee meeting.

 

Christopher Sabine, Dale Barta and Lisa Hall attended. Deborah Kendrick
expressed at the NFB Chapter meeting on June 27 that she was unable to set
up a P.O. Box for the Chapter due to other commitments. Christopher Sabine
has had extensive discussions with two past members, John Christianson and
Marion King, regarding their participation in the chapter.

 

John is currently a resident of the Autobine Community in Lebanon. While he
has attended some meetings in the past, he indicated that coordinating
transportation from Lebanon is very difficult. He indicated that there is at
least one other visually impaired resident at Autobine. Pat Eschbach, who is
currently affiliated with the Miami Valley Chapter, is also a resident of
the community.

 

Marion King, another longtime member, also expressed interest in staying
abreast of membership activities. However, she indicated that she is unable
to physically attend meetings because of age and mobility limitations.
Marion expressed appreciation for reaching out to her.

 

Christopher agreed to connect with Paul Dressell and see if he could connect
with both these members on a regular basis to keep them abreast of Chapter
activities, as both members are well acquainted with the Dressels.
Christopher also agreed to ask Paul if he has any contacts at Autobine or
other retirement communities who could be willing to share information and
coordinate transportation to Chapter meetings.

 

Dale expressed that we should have a "movie night" at Clovernook to
introduce employees and others to the Federation. Lisa expressed that Scott
Walters, Clovernook's current Orientation & Mobility specialist, has a
library of audio described movies that could be shown. Christopher Agreed to
connect with the Recreation Committee concerning this.

 

Christopher has also emailed Deanna Lewis concerning an updated membership
list; Deanna indicated that she should have this sent out before Convention.

 

Our next meeting is scheduled for Friday, August 21 at 7:30 by phone
conference.

 

Very Best Regards,

 

Chris
