Division News
IMPORTANT  Convention Info
 I want to be sure everybody listens to the Presidential release for June.  He makes us aware of items you Will be charged for without you being aware of it. John says to avoid anything in the bar area of your room.  You will be charged for any items moved or consumed in the refrigerator.  Apparently, the cups on the top of the bar have sensors on them as well.

Craft Sell
After a conversation with the Convention Coordinator, we have July 7,
2019 from 8:00A.M. -Noon in room Coral A.  When I had the option of taking that slot or not having the Sell at all, I didn't see much of a choice.  No, it isn't the best but at least it will happen.  I appreciate him holding that spot for us. Thanks to those that have graciously donated items for the Division table.  All items sold at this table will benefit the Krafters Division.

John said that we should not have any problems getting into our room a little early to set up.
Division Business Meeting
The business meeting is scheduled for July 9, 2019 from 7:00P.M.-9:00P.M. in room Coral A.  AIRAwill be at our meeting to discuss their service from 7:10 to 7:25.  For the members that are not able to attend in person, you will be able to call in to the Monday Night Chat line. 605-475-4000. Code: 966659#.

This year only Terry and I are the only officers going to the convention.  According to the Division Constitution, we will NOT be able to hold an election.  The Constitution says that there has to be a majority of officers present at the business meeting.  Also, because of NFB rules, people attending by phone are NOT able to vote. Because of this the Division is not able to hold an election for the two Board seats. Thank you to Jennette and Terry for agreeing to serve an extra term.

  If anybody has any questions, please let me know and I will share what I know.
Thanks!
Tammy
