I found this intresting and thought I would pass it on just in case you all
aren't aware that the convention structure is very different this year for
National.
Monday, July 1, will be the preregistration workshops and seminars. Tuesday,
July 2, will begin the registration process, and also hold many, many, many
committee and division meetings and workshops, including the lawyers'
division mock trial, the national association of blind students meeting,
etc, etc.
Wednesday, July 3, will be the day of the board meeting, and many more
division meetings, and the like. Thursday, July 4, begins the plenary
sessions with the roll call of states, the Presidential report, and other
speakers. Friday, July 5, will continue the all convention sessions, with
much of the business session such as elections, resolutions, etc, and more
presentations. Finally, Saturday, July 6, will be a full day of convention
sessions, culminating in the evening with the banquet including scholarship
presentations, and of course Doctor Maurer's address.
Sunday, July7, you can fly home, or stay around Orlando, or whatever you
want because convention is over.
Hope this helps.
