[Fopbc] NFB National Convention Agenda Now Available On-Line

[Lenora Marten]

Hi Grace,


The convention agenda can indeed be very overwhelming! Start going over the agenda together. Don't feel
like you have to set aside enough time to do it all at once. It's best to start off with a few pages and then
give yourselves time to think about the choices. Start on it as soon as you can; convention will be here 
before you know it! Keep a list of what Ross is interested in as well as yourself. Write down any questions
you may have. 


I'll be putting together a conference call for national convention the second week of June for parents
and the third week of June for teens. There will be several Florida families attending for the first time
and many that have attended previously. In fact, there is another boy attending for the first time, who
is between Ross and Eric's age and also attends school at FSDB. The teens will have a chance to chat on
the conference call to see what each other is interested in and to ask questions of other teens who 
have attended the national convention before. And yes, Eric's looking forward to "hanging out" with
Ross! 


Take Care ~

Hello Lenora, hope all is well with you. I just read over the convention agenda and I feel very overwhelmed. What suggestions do you have to make the most of our experience? I would still love to have Ross and Eric "hang out" together if that is possible. Let me know.
 
Grace
