[MD-AtLarge] Deadline Extended: Focus Forward: NFB of Maryland Convention Registration and Hotel Deadline Extended to October 22

[president at nfbmd.org]



All,

We have learned that due to the delays with postal delivery, many individuals who prefer to register via hard copy form only received their mailed convention bulletin in the last few weeks though we sent them out in late August.  As a result, we are extending the pre-registration deadline through October 22, 2021.  Where possible, please register online or complete and email back the attached registration forms to expedite processing, as who knows how long it’ll take the Postal Service to return completed forms to us.  The link for online registration is below.  The convention bulletin is also attached.

The National Federation of the Blind of Maryland knows that blindness is not the characteristic that defines you or your future. Every day we raise the expectations of blind people, because low expectations create obstacles between blind people and our dreams. You can live the life you want; blindness is not what holds you back.
