Marie Cobb is there and a good place to find her is in the Maryland section.
She also tends the Entrepneuer[man I killed that spelling] division.

OK, I'll try find her while there. I'm looking at the agenda and feeling
terribly overwhelmed about the whole experience so time for a shift of
activity.

Help me out here.  I am terrible on remembering names.  I believe she is Dr.
Jernigan's daughter and either works or worked in Baltimore NFB and her and
her husband adopted a child. From China]?  Please help me out with her name
so maybe she can try to get in touch with her at Convention.

You could look for her in Maryland section at Convention.

Please let us know what her name is.

Joyce

Hi Ramona 

That's fantastic and yes, I'm coming with someone who has been to convention
many times. I'd love to help where I can. The only reason for me not to will
be if there's an adoption-related thing going on at the same time.

I have the agenda and will be pouring over it in the next few days. Thanks
for all the timps and I can't wait to meet all of you.

Michelle from BC Canada

Michelle I hope you can download the convention agenda ahead of time.  If
not, there will be Braille and print available  when you get there.    you
will meet lots of us at convention.  That's one of the wonderful things
about going.  There will be a meeting of a parental concerns committee or
group.  These are people who are blind who are raising kids.  I don't know
how many get together, but you may find some interesting experiences there.
There are also quite a few people who have adopted children in the Parents
of Blind Children Division.  

I hope you are going with someone who has been tere before and can give you
pointers,.  If not, you can be connected to us by phone by the hotel
operator.  You do need first and last names.  But don't be shy about
calling.  

If you come to the craft show on Sunday and/or the exhibit room on Monday or
Tuesday, yhou will find people representing the Crafters Division.  Then
there is a business meeting later, I think Tuesday evening.  We will be
looking for you.  And we can put you to work at the craft show and/or the
exhibit room. 
States are seated in the general sessions in alphabetical order.  So you can
look for specific people in there state delegations on Wednesday, Thursday,
and Friday.  It is a good idea to step outside of the room for
conversations, but you can set times to get together or step outside. I am
glad you are coming and looking forward to meeting you.

		I am adopted by a single woman. Single adoption was
legalized in 1963 and that is the year I was adopted from Washington DC.
I was raised by a mother and grand mother and they adopted many other kids
and fostered many, too!
Most of us are handicapped in some way.

Hello List 

 

Please excuse the off topic but I'm going to convention and have a dairy
allergy and am vegetarian which makes me basically vegan. I'm wondering if
anyone who is vegan or who knows about where vegans can eat at convention
could contact me off-list. I'm going to bring things for breakfast and lunch
but would love to know about what to do for dinner. 

 

Also, if any adoptive parents or perspective adoptive parents would like to
connect at convention, please also write me off-list because I'd love to
make this happen. My email is michelle.creedy at gmail.com

 

Michelle
