<p class="x_MsoNormal">Good morning to all Sisters and Brothers in the National Federation of the Blind of Iowa,</p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal">Our convention is quickly approaching, and this year is going to be a new adventure. I hope we are all prepared for it.
</p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal">The banquet is usually a time of being together to celebrate what has been accomplished at our convention, and this year is no exception. With that in mind, we have reserved space at the Bennigans Restaurant, 4800 Merle Hay Road in Urbandale.
You will note that this restaurant is in the Holiday Inn and Suites Hotel Northwest Des Moines where our conventions have been hosted. They are remodeled and they are reopened following the spring shut down.
</p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal">The final general session of the convention ends at 5:30 CDT, July 18, and the banquet commences at 6:30. We should be gathering between 6:00 and 6:30. We will be in the County Clerk Room, and we will be able to order from the menu.
</p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal">Please let me know if you will be able to attend the banquet virtually, yet together. E-mail me at
</p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><a href="mailto:cindyray@gmail.com">cindyray@gmail.com</a></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal">or call at (515) 334-7231 by Monday evening, July 13. </p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal">Please forgive the cross posting,. I hope I will hear from you soon. Otherwise, have a fantastic convention.</p>
