<div dir="auto">Hello NFB of Georgia, just wanted to be sure that I sent out this update. It may be a duplicate but I wanted those who are planning to go to the 2022 national convention to have this updated information. Please share with members or friends that are planning to go that may not be on the Georgia Listserv.

<p class="MsoNormal">I know! How on earth did it get to be mid-May already? There is now just a week and a half left to register online for convention and to book your hotel room. You can register to attend convention in person and purchase your banquet tickets
at <a href="https://nfb.org/registration" target="_blank">https://nfb.org/registration</a> until May 31. Prices go up if you wait until you arrive in New Orleans. And don’t wait any longer to make your reservations. Space at the Marriott has filled up but there are still
PLENTY of rooms available at the $109 convention rate right across the street at the New Orleans Sheraton. Call 888-627-7033 and ask to book a room for the “NFB Convention.” Please note that this is a different number than originally published in the
<i>Braille Monitor</i>. <u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The convention rate and our room block disappear after May 31, so don’t delay! Visit the convention information page at
<a href="https://nfb.org/convention" target="_blank">https://nfb.org/convention</a> regularly for additional details and announcements. I look forward to seeing you all in New Orleans.<u></u><u></u></p>
