Greetings Arizona Federationists,

I would like to share with you some great news about our website as well as the link to pre-register for the 2018 state convention online. 

First off the Arizona website has been redesigned and redeveloped over the past few days and I am proud to announce we are looking good on the web. A big thank you to the Technology committee for their support and efforts and a big thank you to Jonathan Candler for working with me to get our website back up and running. There is still work to be done but right now we are up to date and looking good on the NFB brand. Here is the link to the website if you would like to view it.

Next, I am excited to announce that we are set up to accept online registration for the 2018 NFB of Arizona state convention. It should be straight forward but just in case here are some things to note about registering.
1. Follow this link to visit the convention information page of the website and to access the pre-registration form.

2. You can navigate by heading according to your screen reader and find the heading for Pre-registration.
3. Read through the information under this heading and follow the link to the pre-registration form.
4. On this form you will first complete the registration form with your name, contact information, and things like if you will be paying for registration, lunches, and banquet dinner. Please do respond to these fields as we need them for an accurate count.
5. Upon submission of this form you will be taken to a page where you can pay online through our secure Pay-pal account. Again please read this page  for important information about how things will work this year.
6. On this page you will find 5 custom buttons that will add each corresponding item to a shopping cart. Again the site was created with accessibility in mind so you can navigate to each item using heading navigation. Also each button has been optimized with alt text to be read by your screen reader. 
7. For each item the price is listed and already associated with the button. If you wish to purchase the item simply navigate through the list of buttons and click the "Add To Cart" button below it. If you do not wish to purchase a particular item simply skip that section and do not press the "add To Cart" button for that item.
8. Once you have added each item you wish to purchase to your cart you can click the button labeled "View My Cart and Checkout. At this point you will see each item you are purchasing as well as the price for each and the total to be paid. 
9. Finally, enter your payment information on the secure Pay-pal site to complete your pre-registration and purchase the items you want. 
The items are:
• Convention Registration
• Friday Lunch
• Saturday lunch
• Banquet Dinner

Thank you for taking the time to complete the pre-registration process and we look forward to seeing you all soon.
