> Greetings Cincinnati NFB,
> All too often, I go about the business of the chapter, of the Federation as
> a whole, and forget to tell anyone.  A thing needs doing, we get it done,
> and we move on to do the next thing that requires attention.
>
> That almost happened with our new address, which I secured for us on
> Monday,
> but it is just so exciting that I am ordering myself to take a few moments
> and share the news with you!
>
> As promised, I went back to the post office Monday, this time with proof of
> home ownership and my photo ID.
> I filled out the application, paid $82 for the first year, and came away
> with the keys to our very own NFB Cincinnati post office box!
>
> Our address is:
> NFB Cincinnati
> P.O. Box 8184
> Cincinnati, OH 45208
>
> The post office I selected is in Hyde Park.  It is adjacent to Hyde Park
> Square, a stone's throw from a Metro bus stop, and easily accessed by foot
> or car.
> The area where the post office boxes are is accessible 24 hours a day.
> I am very pleased that we now have an actual address, and would like to ask
> Chris Sabine and his committee to have more labels made soon, with the
> addition of our new mailing address.
>
> They should read like the original ones we designed, with the addition of
> the PO Box.
>
> Now, when we have flyers for fundraisers, membership recruitment, or
> events,
> we can tell people where to send their money!  <smile>
> The mat by the boxes reads:
> "Welcome to your new address."
> I share it with you because it is YOUR address and MY address.
> It is the address of the National Federation of the blind of Cincinnati.
