[David Meyer]

This is great news indeed. I remember the last time President Riccobono was our National rep. He was a fun Idle judge, and he had a lot of info to give us.

Hello fellow federationists,

I am pleased to announce that our national representative for the 2017 State convention is NFB President Mark Riccobono. We are looking forward to a great convention, and we are certainly excited to have President Riccobono as our national rep.

Remember the State convention is October 27, 28, and 29. It is at the Chicago Naperville Marriott in Naperville Illinois.

In other convention news:

The Chappell Dennis  Forms are due to  me by September 1, 2017. My e-mail address is davant1958 at gmail.com <mailto:davant1958 at gmail.com> .

The cutoff date for hotel registration is October 6, 2017.

The cutoff for meal requests is October 13, 2017., Our meal options are regular, vegetarian and kosher. You will need to turn in your meal request to Patti Chang at pattischang at gmail.com <mailto:pattischang at gmail.com>  by October 13, 2017. When you specify your meal option, please tell her what meals you are ordering (breakfast(s), student lunch or banquet, along with your meal option. 

Mary Grunwald is this year's door prize chair. If you have door prizes, Mary is the person to give them to. It is best if you can donate, cash, gift cards or small items. It is too hard for people to carry large items on public transportation.

I will have the convention bulletin out soon.

Thank you.

 

 

 

 

 

Denise R. Avant, President

National Federation of the Blind of Illinois
