[Nfb-kzoo] NFB meeting today, September 16

[Tyler and Leanne Merren]

Hi all,
I realize this is late in coming, but this is a reminder that, as it is the 
third Thursday of the month, we will have our NFB of Kalamazoo meeting 
tonight at 5:30 PM at Gallagher's Eatery on Stadium Dr.  I know September is 
a very busy month for all of us, as we are all settling into a very busy 
routine, but please keep in mind that we have to maintain a large enough 
attendnace to keep using the room at Gallagher's.  We have a great set up 
there and we don't want to lose it.  Even more important is the fact that we 
are voting in new officers this evening, so please make every effort to 
attend this very important meeting.
Several of us are taking the bus, so we will meet on the Stadium Dr. bus 
down town at 5:15.
Hope to see you all this evening.
Leanne
Chapter Secretary

> Hello NFBers and Friends,
> I'm writing to let you know that we have scheduled the next three meetings 
> of the Kalamazoo chapter of the NFB at Galleghers Eatery on Stadium drive. 
> The meeting times are all 5:30-7:30ish in the evening, and they are all on 
> the third Thursday of the next three months, so September 16, Octover 21, 
> and November 18.  We had a great turnout last time and I hope that 
> everyone can continue to attend and make the meetings as rich as the last 
> one.  These are set-up so that 5:30 works with the busing schedule and the 
> first portion of the meeting is free for conversation and eating, the 
> second portion of the meeting is used for conducting business...well, 
> socializing business as it usually is.  :)
>
> Just a reminder that the meeting next week will be the meeting where we 
> collect membership dues (these are $5 for the year) and we will be voting 
> in members of office.  If you have an intent to run for an office 
> position, you should let the group or someone on the group know ahead of 
> time, so that your interest is known and you can be nominated.  Another 
> note is that if you do not wish to pay the membership fee, you are still 
> welcome and encouraged to attend the meetings, but you will not have the 
> right to vote for elections or money usage for future events.  I'm sure 
> that our treasurer would appreciate exact cash, though I believe that a 
> check would suffice as well.
>
> I'll be sending out an agenda a day or two before the meeting, and this 
> will serve as a reminder of meeting as well.  The next agenda will be 
> fairly short since the elections normally take some time.  Please contact 
> me or anyone on the board if you have any questions.    As the year is 
> getting started again for our group, we would truely appreciate any ideas 
> that any individuals may have for the group to address...future projects 
> that the group can focus on?
