[Nfbf-l] {Disarmed} Re: [NFBF-Leaders] Cruise with guide dogs

Hi David,

I agree with you.  Though it sounds like a real exciting thing I do believe
it would be quite expensive per individual and would also take quite a few
days.  I think getting vendors would be nearly impossible given costs.

Thank you,
Jim Ellsworth

Dear Holly and all,

It is a great idea, but where would the boat leave from and go to.
There is also the cost of the travel to and from the port to consider.
How many vendors and sponsors might you get to come and show their wares?
Will anyone be getting off the boat at any foreign ports of call and need 
passports?
Will a large room be needed for general session style meetings or the like?
Will there be any hard cut off date for reservations before the cruise?
Will there be enough members able to afford the trip?
I personally think that to do it as just a fun trip would be the best, but 
that the idea of trying to do it as our State Convention has allot of 
negatives.  Just my two cents.

David Evans, NFBF and GD Jack.

Do you think we, as a chapter, could do the work it will take to host
a state convention?
