Subject: [Mdabs] Nabs Needs Your Help at National Convention

 As you all know, the National association of blind students is planning a
lot of exciting things at national convention. What you may not know however
is that we as a board can't do all of it ourselves.
So we would very much appreciate your help in making the nabs activities a
success this year!
 Where we would most appreciate your assistance is in two areas:
1.  Assistance in staffing the nabs table located in the exhibit hall.
 Here you will be partnered up with a nabs board member selling   nabs
items and handing out nabs literature.  The schedule for tabling looks like
this:
 Sunday, July 1:	
Shift 2. 1:00 p.m. - 3:00 p.m.
Shift 3. 3:00p.m. - 5:00 p.m.
Monday, July 2:
Shift 4:  8:30 a.m. - 11:00 a.m.
Shift 6: 1:00 p.m. - 3:00 p.m.
Tuesday, July 3:
Shift 9: 7:00p.m. - 9:00 p.m.
Wednesday, July 4:
Shift 11: 6:00p.m. - 8:30 p.m.


As you can see, these are the shifts we have left, so if you contact me with
your preference, I will be more than happy to get you scheduled in!

2. Staffing the nabs Monte Carlo night fund raiser. This is a great
opportunity to work shoulder to shoulder with us in putting together one of
our most successful events that we do.  For this we will need:
 Individuals who can work an early shift (7:00 p.m. - 9:30 p.m.  Those
individuals will be asked to either
a.	Marshal.
b.	Set up for the event
c.	Deal card games( blackjack, poker, holdemand other such games)
 We will also need Late shift workers (9:30 p.m. - 12:00 a.m.)  Those
individuals would be asked to:
a.	deal card games (blackjack, poker, holdem and other such games)
b.	Assist with event clean- up and playing chip counting.

Please let me know what shift(s) you are interested in working (exhibit
hall, Monte Carlo or both).  Also please supply a contact
phone number where you can be reached during convention.   If you are
interested in working Monte Carlo, please let me know what job you would
like to take on, if you would like to deal and what games you would like to
deal (blackjack, poker, holdem or other such games).
 This is a great opportunity for you to meet the nabs board, and us to get
to know you. As well, this is an equally great opportunity for you to meet a
lot of new people and have some fun at the same time.
 Please contact me if interested.
 I can be contacted at: dsmithnfb at gmail.com

 Thank you   so much for your interest and I look forward to hearing
from you all real soon
 And of course, see you in Dallas!!!
  Best,
Darian
