[Nfbf-l] NFBF 2011 State Convention News

[Dan Hicks]

I am so glad to see the Pinellas crew on the list generating interest in the
upcoming convention. Thank you Mike and Jim. Good old MTV -- when it really
was Music Television! It will be great to spend a weekend in the 80s! I
can't wait to find out what that "eight" thing is all about! 

Go to http://www.nfbflorida.org/upcoming/convention-2011.htm for complete
information about the convention and a form to print and send in along with
your convention registration payment. Call the hotel at 727-894-5000 or
1-800-445-8667 to make your room reservations. Mention the convention or
convention code NFB to get the great NFBF convention rates. Rooms are
limited so make your reservations today!

historic

The

Anspach

> They were very active members and left 3 very big pairs of shoes to fill.
> David and Tammy were very big fans of 1980's music. So, the 80's will be
the
