[NFBA-Phoenix] Assistance with convention and fundraising

[Brad Kuhn]

 Hello fellow Venetian Federation family; I hope everyone is geared up for a fun filled weekend of fellowship and philosophy. As you all know, state convention is right around the corner. Well, here is another "F" for you. Fundraising! I am pleased to announce that this year we will be assisting with 13 of our members during the state convention. This is something that we have not done in over 15 years. As a reminder, it is because of the efforts of the Phoenix chapter when I comes to fundraising that we can do this. That is why I am asking that all of you that I have lanyards to sell for the Phoenix chapter to bring those lanyards to convention and sell them with full force. Remember, we are selling the lanyards at eight dollars for $15 for two, or $20 for three. I did ask Debra Smith if we could sell the lanyards during the karaoke on Friday and she gave us permission.  I think it is important to show the rest of the affiliate how strong the Phoenix chapter is. I ask that each of you that are selling the lanyards, make sure that you are wearing the lanyards proudly. I know   That at registration, they will be giving you a lanyard to wear but that you have to return back to the state when convention is done. Please don't take that lanyard but use the one that our chapter is selling. When you are selling the lanyards, make sure that you let people know that half of what we raise will go to the state affiliate. I cannot wait to see each and every one of you at the convention and I am looking forward to to seeing each and everyone of you. Sincerely, Brad Kuehne Phoenix chapter president
