[nabs-l] A Convention Update

[Darian Smith]

Roanna,
 it is truly unfortunate that you couldn’t have made it this year.
 One of the things I love   about the federation  is that membership in it is  very much a participatory  activity.  One can hear about convention, read about it, listen to it, but nothing is like going to a convention and being a part of  the activities that go on, surrounded by the positivity, the energy  and the hope for the possibilities of our future and knowing that we are the ones that can make it come true.
 I honestly can’t think of one memory or a group of them, because well, there was a lot.
 We celebrated our past, looked to our future and  broke a world record in the present, and came away with actions we needed to follow through on to keep the work of our movement going.
 I hope that you will be a part of the action, the work, the excitement today and in the days that follow so that you might find something that inspires you to be with us in Orlando next year.
   Darian
