[Nfbc-info] FW: DOR seeking nominations to serve on Blind Advisory Committee

[Clark, Ted A@DOT]

Good morning Mary.

I have an interest in serving on the board, however I have a couple of questions that I hope you can answer.

1: where are the meetings held2: what time are they held3: what day of the week are they held

I am attempting to find out this information before I apply because if the meetings conflict with my work schedule I would not be able to do it.  

Thank you very much Ted Clark Schedules
