[NFB-Maryland] Notice of Official Business Meeting of NFBMD

[president at nfbmd.org]

All,

We will be holding an Official Business Meeting of the National Federation
of the Blind of Maryland during the Board of Directors Meeting at 9:00AM
Friday, November 6, 2020.  At that time, we will hold official readings of
two documents.  

 

The first document is the Proposed Rules of Engagement for the NFBMD State
Convention, which the NFBMD Board of Directors voted to use when we met in
August 2020.  The Convention will vote on adoption of these proposed Rules
of Engagement on Saturday, November 7, 2020 in our morning Convention
General Session.  These proposed rules will be send via a separate email.

 

The second document includes proposed language to revise our NFBMD State
Affiliate Constitution.  Our Constitutional Amendment Committee, which
includes Chairperson Debbie Brown, Sharon Maneki, Marguerite Woods, and Dr.
Marc Maurer,  worked hard to modernize our Constitution and incorporate
needed changes now that we have an At Large chapter in Maryland.  We most
recently updated this Constitution in 1982.  The Convention will vote on
adoption of the proposed amended constitution on Saturday, November 7, 2020
in our morning Convention General Session.  The proposed amended
constitution and explanations of changes will be send via a separate email.

 

Please don't hesitate to let me know if you have questions.

 

Regards,

Ronza

Ronza Othman, President

National Federation of the Blind of Maryland

Pronouns: she, her, hers

 

The National Federation of the Blind of Maryland knows that blindness is not
the characteristic that defines you or your future. Every day we raise the
expectations of blind people, because low expectations create obstacles
between blind people and our dreams. You can live the life you want;
blindness is not what holds you back.
