[il-talk] NFB-Illinois Annual convention

[denise avant]

Hello Wayne,
This year's State convention is the last weekend in October, running from
Friday to Sunday. It takes place at the Chicago, Naperville Marriott in
Naperville Illinois. We are starting to plan for convention, and so the
materials are not up yet. But the registration and hotel costs as well as
the programming will be posted in late July and certainly in August. If you
neede to apply for convention assistance, you can go to our website at
www.nfbiofillinois.org, and click on the Chappell-Dennis link. There you
will find the form. You should send the form to me at davant1958 at gmail.com
by September 1, 2017.
Leslie is right. The State convention is a great way to get started.
I hope this helps, and welcome to our federation family.

National Federation of the Blind of Illinois

Subject: [il-talk] NFB-Illinois Annual convention

*Hello,*

*I'm very new to being an NFB family member and am very uncertain about some
things., like conventions....
*

*I will not be able to attend The NFB National Convention, for various
reasons. I was thinking, however, that attending the NFB-Illinois annual
convention would be a good way to "dip my toes into the water". I've never
attended a convention of any kind and am uncertain as to what to
expect.*

*So, I'll fall back on the "W's" used by reporters for aeons....*

*What? The NFB-Illinois Annual convention*

*When? I don't know that answer to this one, would someone clew me in
please?*

*Where? Again, I don't know the answer to this question.*

*Why? To meet my fellow Federationists....*

*
*

*Thank you for any light that can be shed.*

*
*

*Wayne M. Scace*
