<DIV>Hello Justin</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>That is a fair honest question as there has been a lot happenign
tehre as needing stronger leadershp . Now with the election over a
lot is happening there are a lot of projects in motinn huge job creation
with bunch of big companies coming to the area along with the state and
government paying better attention of gun control and crime action
fro mit. Having said taht there is a lot the city offers with
great trasportation and when there are big group action conventions
etc are protected well so it really would be a good locatin and a
lot ot offer for us.</DIV>

don’t shoot me for this, but I have to ask a sensitive question here. I grew
up with my only knowledge of Bridgeport being the poverty and crime that was
constantly on the news about it. When I heard that the BELL program was going
to be there this past summer, I was surprised that we ran a program in a city
with such a rough reputation. I went, anyway, because it was our program, but
I cannot help but wonder how many people held back because it was Bridgeport.
To defend the city, I actually thought it was pretty legit when we were there,
at least the part of town that we were in. The perception of the city that
pervades our state will have more of an impact, though, than the realities of
the city. <o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

There is a hotel downtown that does all this conference stuff It

going to take care of itself if we are already looking at the kinds of
hotels that can accommodate our convention. This cannot be wisely assumed,
but there is a pretty good shot. I say this because we don’t find hotels
with many rooms, meeting space, catering, a restaurant/bar, etc., out in the
boonies; these are in urban areas. Where do we find mass transit systems,
such as buses, trains, and cabs? These are also in urban areas.

style="COLOR: #1f497d">Thanks for opening the floor for such an important
discussion! I bet you’re going to be attending the leadership seminar in
Baltimore about planning state conventions. I really like the North
Carolina model of having a host chapter for each convention. The chapters
go out and put together competitive convention package bids with hotel
details, pricing, and some info about public transit access, and then the
state board votes on the best proposal. It’s really quite cool, and the
host chapter is touted and praised; it’s a big deal. I’d like to see us
move toward that here in Connecticut. Another benefit, of course, is that
it gives us negotiating power to drive down the prices.</SPAN><SPAN

style="COLOR: #1f497d">Some affiliates like to have a convention in a
place with either no chapter or a weak chapter if possible to bring people
to an NFB function that wouldn’t normally be able to attend. That’s nice,
but I also like having local people in the local chapter available to help
with details. </SPAN><SPAN style="COLOR: black"><o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
