Hello. My name is Rachel also. I am Rachel Becker from MD, and I am also a

national scholarship winner this year! I am very excited! I don't know what

to expect as a scholarship winner either, but I have been to national

convention before. It is a very busy week. I could spend hours and hours

just in the exhibit hall. Have you looked at the agenda yet? There are

meetings during the day and fun events like careoche night, the talent show,

the Louisiana play, and a dance. What I love most is the Federation spirit.

Everyone is so energetic. It's kind of like a pep rally, but more

motivational of course. I am really looking forward to meeting you at

convention.

Rachel

Hello. My name is Rachel Jacobs. I just wanted to introduce myself to those

of you who do not know me. I live in Sarasota, Florida. I attend the

University of South Florida where I am receiving my masters degree in

Rehabilitation and Mental Health Counseling. I am the president of the

Manasota Chapter of the National Federation of the Blind. It is named

Manasota because it encompasses both Sarasota and Manatee counties. I am

also the vice president of the Florida Association of Blind Students. I will

be attending my first national convention this year in Detroit. I am a

national scholarship winner this year. I was wondering first if any of you

are scholarship winners this year. Secondly, I was wondering if any of you

have been scholarship winners in the passed, and if so if you could give me

a run down of what to expect. Also, if you have just been to national if you

could give me an idea of what to expect as well. I am very excited to be

going, and I hope to meet a lot of y!

ou there!

Thanks,

Rachel Jacobs
