[NFBC-SFV] Time sensitive State Convention info

[Joe O'Toole]

Hello, can you please check with Everly to see if a bus will be picking up in the inland Empire specifically Montclair? In past years the bus has picked up in the NL in empire and then going on to conventions in Northern California.

Thank you. Joe

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.

The form is easy to complete, and if you preregister for the whole enchilada, it will only cost $75, plus the $5.00 for the bus.  That includes access to the Vendor Exhibitor Hall, Friday Family Feud Game and Auction with appetizers, a luncheon on Saturday, and the banquet on Saturday night.
