RE: For interested presenters or attendees

 

I received this just yesterday. I will not be able to attend; being on
vacation on the first two days. I would love to go and share what I know.
Some of you  have attended and/or worked one or more of these programs. If
you think you can work this you're your schedule, and have the knowledge and
skill to contribute, reach out to the coordinators. If you as a potential
attendee have not received information about this upcoming event, reach out
to your NCBVI teacher. 

 

Note, I am not sure how widely  this notice for presenters is happening. I
do know several of our members will be attending.

Hi Robert! 

 

This year's Silver Summit, OIB Conference is being held in Kearney May 13th
- 16th this year. We always enjoy having retired staff and any friends of
the commission join us to help to continue to make it such a successful
event. An itinerary is attached along with the flyer for this year's event.
What we are looking for is additional assistance with class sessions,
mealtime speakers, vendors (ACB, NFB, Friends of the Commission). If you are
interested in any of the above, please let Angie Hoff or me know. You are
welcome to join us for one day or all days. Meals and hotel will be
provided, and monetary contracts can be drawn up for people providing
instruction or speaking. Bus transportation from Omaha and Lincoln is
available at no cost or mileage reimbursement can be arranged. Please take a
look at the schedule to see if you would be interested and what areas you
would like to contribute to. In the flyer you will find a registration link
along with a link to the promo video made during last year's event. 

 

Sincerely,
