on Friday, October 23 at 3:15 P. M. (Registry)</b></p>
<p style="margin: 0in; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"><b> Jennifer McGilll from the NM Library for the Blind will be there to make sure we know about their services and how to get registered with them. She will also let us know what is
happening in the world of electronic books and the devices they are played on. During our meeting we will have a meet and greet. We will have some fun learning how you do what you do as a blind or low vision individual, we will have a 50/50 raffle and we
will have some pretty spectacular door prizes. So make sure when you get there let our door person know your name and if you are a new comer make sure and give that person your contact information.</b></p>

<p style="margin: 0in; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">the National Federation of the Blind advances the lives of its members and all blind people in the United States. We know 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. Our collective power, determination, and diversity achieve the aspirations of all blind people.</p>
