[IL-Talk] September Chicago Hybrid Meting, September 13, 1 PM

[dan.tevelde at comcast.net]

Hi all,

I checked out the menu and couldn't seem to navigate it using a keyboard and screenreader. There are tabs and JAWS and NVDA indicate which ones are selected. I couldn't find menu items in each category. I used Firefox. I wouldn't say the menu is inaccessible until I find out what other people experienced. I know what the issue is if in fact the site isn't accessible. It is built with WordPress which has very accessible templates. If anyone has a workaround, let me know.

Thanks,
Dan

Hello All,

The September Chicago chapter hybrid meeting will be on Saturday, September
13 at 1 PM. The in-person meeting will be at the Royal Grocer, 2118 N Damon Ave. in Chicago. Here is the link to the menu https://royalgrocer.com/menu/


We hope you will come in-person but if you choose to attend on Zoom, the Zoom information is below. All are invited to attend. The agenda will follow the Zoom information. 

Please note that the At Large chapter has chosen TV themes of any kind for the Battle of the chapters on Friday night during convention. Please be ready with a recommended song that all of us can sing. The At Large Chapter President, one David Meyer is out here trash talking. So, warm up your voices and let's get ready to replace those guys and help raise money for our affiliate.

Because there are so many songs to choose from, we will take the first four and the chapter will vote.

 

National Federation of the Blind of Illinois is inviting you to a scheduled Zoom meeting.
