[Ct-nfb] December Meeting of the Waterbury Area Chapter

[Nathanael T. Wales]

Gary,

 

No worries, it’s two towns over, about 10 miles. Most members in Bridgeport don’t mind traveling to Milford, so I’d recommend we keep working to build the one big chapter that can and does draw in people from that distance away…

 

Nathanael

Thanks Nathaniel. Excuse my ignorance how far is Milford from Bridgeport. Do we have enough people in Bridgeport to start a chapter there.

Elizabeth,

I want to take a minute to answer your question regarding a National
Federation of the Blind chapter closer to Bridgeport.  We have a chapter
that meets in Milford, the Southern Connecticut Chapter.  Most NFB members
from Bridgeport attend this chapter.  The meeting location at the Fowler
Memorial Building in Milford is half a block from a major bus line and maybe
two blocks from the Milford Metro North train station.  And yes, I am a
member of the chapter.

We usually meet on the second Saturday of the month at 1:30 P.M. or 2:00
P.M.  However, in December our holiday party is on the first Saturday,
December 3; our January meeting, on January 14, will host the affiliate
board meeting and will begin around 11:00 A.M. and probably end around 2:00
P.M. or 3:00 P.M.  For more details, interested persons can contact our
president, Encole Stewart at (203) 923-2191--or myself, of course...

Help Us Build Our Future
Attend Meetings of Our New Waterbury Chapter!


The National Federation of the Blind of Connecticut (NFB of CT) invites you
to join our new Waterbury Chapter. We hold our meetings at the Silas Bronson
Library, 267 Grand Street, on the Second Saturday of each month.

On December 10th, our meeting will concern audible crosswalk signals in the
City of Waterbury. Our State Representative Gerry Reyes, several Aldermen
and a City Engineer will attend our meeting to discuss this issue. Plan to
attend this important meeting!

To learn that you are greater than what most sighted people believe they
see, meet us at the Silas Bronson Library on Saturday December 10th from
noon to 2:00 PM.

For further questions, please contact Josefina Martinez at 203-578-6471, or
call our community outreach office at 860-289-1971.
