[NFBF-L] Two opportunities at our October convention Please read, consider and reply to me directly

[russell at radiorusty.com]

Good morning everyone,

 

This is an email that will need a reply, but "not" to this list. Please
reply to me directly if you are a yes or likely. No need to respond if
you're not able to participate in either of the below activity
opportunities. There is not a wrong answer here, your decision is truly
yours.

 

The Big Red Bus from the One Blood Donation Center will be on hand at our
upcoming NFB of Florida State Convention in Jacksonville on Saturday,
October 8th. The mobile blood donation unit and all it's friendly and highly
qualified  medical staff will be in the parking lot of the South Bank Hotel
between  the hours of 10 AM and 4 PM.

 

I have been asked by the organizers at One Blood to survey those coming to
Convention, to determine if there is enough interest in donating to make
their visit worthwhile.

 

I personally haven't given blood in several years, but will absolutely be on
the bus at some point on Saturday to give the gift of life. Will you join
me?

 

If you are willing and able to  donate a unit of blood, please send me a
note, either by text or email to my personal email address or cell phone. We
want to keep everyone's information off of the Affiliates email list, so
please do not reply to this email directly.

 

Another announcement connected to our Convention is that the good people
from the Jacksonville Speech and Hearing Center will be setting up near our
Exhibit Hall in the hotel. They will also have their mobile unit, "The
Hearing Bus", outside near the Blood Mobile. They will be offering free
hearing screenings. The hearing screenings will be available on Saturday,
October 8th from noon to 6 PM, (the same hours as our Exhibit Hall). Just
like with the blood donation opportunity, your willingness to participate is
completely yours. If you would be interested in receiving a free screening,
please email or text me. I'd like to give the managers a the Hearing Center
an idea of the level of interest we have. I'm told by many that I personally
need to get my hearing checked, those who know me  probably understand why.

 

Looking forward to hearing from everyone soon.

 

Respectfully,

 

Russ Davis,
