[nagdu] NFB Convention

[Julie J]

Mardi,

I'm pretty sure the state NFB convention for Arizona is going to be in 
Phoenix next time.  A state convention is a good way to  check out what the 
NFB is about without the expense or large crowds in a national convention. 
The state conventions last just a weekend and there's no rule that you have 
to stay for the entire thing.  The banquet is the highlight and my favorite 
part.  I'm not sure if every state has a banquet, I think so though.

There isn't the range of vendors, exhibits and divisions that you get at 
national convention, but is most definitely a worthwhile event.

Julie
