[NFBC-SFV] Time sensitive State Convention info

[Joy Stigile]

Hello again,

 

As you know the California State Convention is coming up.  I sincerely hope
that all of you can attend.  It would be wonderful for all of the San
Fernando Valley members could meet and get to know each other even better.
I'm including in this message the Location and dates of the convention.  

 

It is very important that each member of our chapter let me know if you plan
to attend.  This information is needed by our affiliate president so she can
make appropriate bus arrangements.  If you plan to attend and if you want to
take advantage of the transportation that the state affiliate will provide,
you absolutely need to let me know.  The cost of the bus for members is only
$5.00.   Also, if you want to ride the bus, you'll need to first register
for the convention.  At this point, President Hairston is working on
providing 2 buses to serve the southern California area.  One bus has been
reserved to service the Los Angeles area.  A second bus that would serve the
San Diego and Escondido area is pending until a large enough number of
riders has been confirmed.  So, if you plan to attend the convention,
register, and let me know so I can provide President Hairston with an
accurate count.

 

Here are the details of the convention again.
