NFBMD of Greater Baltimore Elections and Leadership Training


 

The leaders of the Greater Baltimore Chapter of the NFB of Maryland have been honored to serve over this past year. Although many of the elected officers will be seeking re-election, several will be unable to continue to serve. Therefore, we are actively planning for the upcoming transition of leadership, and we want to make sure our members are aware of the following. 

 


Greater Baltimore Chapter Elections


The Greater Baltimore Chapter of the NFB of Maryland will be conducting elections for the members of the chapter’s board during our Saturday, November 20, 2021 meeting that will be held via Zoom. If you feel you have the heart and commitment to serve, we encourage you to run for a position. WE would appreciate it if all chapter members that are interested in seeking a board position would send an email to greaterbaltimore at nfbmd.org <mailto:greaterbaltimore at nfbmd.org>  with the name, phone, email, and position of interest.
