[Ryan Strunk via NFBMN-News]

Thanks to Corbb O'Connor for the proofreading I 
didn't do at 3:30 this morning, I want to clarify 
that ideas can be sent to me at 
president at nfbmn.org, not the other email address 
I wrote. I look forward to hearing from you 
today. warmly, Ryan Sent from a mobile device, so 
please forgive the brevity > On May 26, 2018, at

what worked well and what didn't. > Thank you, 
Matt and Tom, for your honest feedback. > Given 
that we need to submit the form for us to have an 
exhibit table, I'm going to ask for one more 
round of ideas, then make the decision in the 
next couple of days. If you have ideas or 
feedback you would like to share, please email me

Greetings, fellow federationists, > I apologize 
for the brevity of this post, but I'm writing it 
on my phone from the bus to work. > At our board 
meeting in April, we discussed changing our 
exhibit table format this year. Instead of having 
each chapter and BLIND Inc. hosting their own 
fundraiser, and asking the volunteers working the 
table to keep track of half a dozen treasuries, 
we thought it would be a better idea to have a 
single fundraiser, then share the money out 
between all the chapters. The question is: what 
should we sell? > Food is certainly a 
possibility—lots of affiliates do that—but there 
ere are also other options. Years ago, the 
Wisconsin affiliate sold envelopes full of 
tic-tacs, but some of those envelopes also 
contained cash prizes. The choices are 
unlimited. > Unfortunately, our time is not. We 
need to make a final decision in the next week in 
order to write copy for the exhibitor list. > I'm 
writing to all of you to solicit ideas. If you 
can think of a fundraiser we should host at our 
exhibit table this year, please email me at 
president at nfbmn.org, and let's discuss. > Thank 
you for your help, > Ryan Strunk, President > >
