[Nfbf-l] Thanks Jacksonville "it was great"

[Kathy Davis]

Dear Gina, Joe, Lenora and all Jacksonville Chapter Members,
	I am so pleased to hear all about the success of the annual
Jacksonville Chapter Picnic. It appears as though everyone had a terrific
time and I love the team effort that was put forth. 
	Wish I could have been there but I was in California on vacation. 

Once again, CONGRATULATIONS!

Kathy

This is annual event is where we reach out to the entire blind community and
ask nothing in return.
We enjoyed having all of you there. We were also happy that NFBF Secretary,
Sherri Brun, joined us.
We had 95 in attendance. We had four inquires about becoming chapter
members.
I am very proud of our chapter for working together to make this picnic as
successful as it is. 
Attendance is growing from year to year.
What a great day of food, fun, and fellowship!
It is a lot of work, but when you know you've given people an enjoyable
experience to remember, and they walk away gaining a new friend, it is worth
it.

Joe & Gina,
There is a song by Black Eyed Peas called "Where isthe Love" check it out;
Jean Marie and I plus seven students from the DaytonaBeach Rehab Center for
the Blind  andVisually Impaired found "Love" attending the Greater
Jacksonville Chapter ofthe NFB annual picnic held at Cuba Hunter Park
community center.  This past Saturday's spring time spectacularwas filled
with a lot of fun, food and friendly camaraderie.  My group really
appreciated your genuinehospitality and continuous gracious display of
affection. 


I want to give Joe and Gina a big warm thank you forallowing the students
from the center to participate and for sharing anatmosphere filled with
friendship.  Greatbig Thanks to Lenora, Larry and Eric as well as all the
chapter members whogreeted us with smiles and kindness.  Ifyou ask me "where
is the Love" I'd have to say "Jacksonville."


Love you all,
Peter Cerullo
Vice President
