We have an informal meeting of folks who are primarily ASL users that meet at different locations throughout Long Island and NYC, but it's a social gathering only. I think there is some kind of organizing effort in the Rochester NY area, but that it's not Federation specific. It seems to me to be more ASL users also, but not entirely. Danielle, I'd like your perspective on that, as I know you are in the area. Smiles.

I eventually wish that some consideration been given to people with things to do during the week? B another comp is called during the weekend for those of us who actually have things to do during the week? Unfortunately, I can’t miss this chapter meeting because it will be our last chapter meeting before the state convention here in New Mexico, and it is being held in Albuquerque, so that makes us the host chapter. Along with her sister chapter on the west side of the city name the West Mesa chapter, for those that might be interested. PS our national rep use our national president. The only other question I have to ask is will this be archived and recorded by Norm and the main instrument saved somehow? For those of us who actually can’t attend.

>> A tiny bit of information about how things are here in New Mexico, I am the youngest member of a deaf blind group called the Trailblazers. These are oral deaf blind people, there is another deaf blind group here in New Mexico, who primarily use ASL, and they are called the via deaf blind group, they are also from what I understand primarily seniors.

>> As I stated above, our 2016 state convention, is in fact here in Albuquerque. Just in case anyone is interested the dates are April 7-10. If anyone wishes more detailed information, please write me off list. I will be happy to provide you what information you wish.

>> My above-stated wish that this had been on a weekend, hopefully does not offend anyone, but I think that it is possible that it would have been more helpful, from a time standpoint. Just my two cents worth, I would look forward to seeing what people think of these comments? I hope everyone has a productive rest of the week and a good weekend coming up, depending on when you read this.
