[NFBF-L] 2024 convention and hurricane update

[president at nfbflorida.org]

Dear federation members:

 

I would like to provide further  details on our 2024 State convention and
the approaching storm.

 

The Florida Affiliate  board had an emergency meeting this morning regarding
our 2024 state Convention and  it was decided to postpone our convention.
The safety of our members is our highest priority, and we do not want to put
any one in harm's way.  We are in communications with the hotel and will
meet with them after the storm passes to coordinate dates that will work for
both parties.

 

The hotel  will do a mass cancelation of those reservations that were under
the NFB convention room block however if you do not receive a cancelation
confirmation Email, please reach out to the hotel at (904) 396-5100 and
cancel your reservation.  I urge all that had travel arrangements with an
airline,  a bus , or train airline company to please contact them and cancel
or receive a travel credit so you do not endure charges.  

 

Furthermore, those members that are in the storm's path, please make sure
you heed your local officials warning and advice.  Your safety is there and
our first priority so please follow the media so you can be aware of
important information.

 

Once the storm passes, please reach out to us to make sure you and your love
ones are doing well.

 

Stay safe.

 

Sincerely,

 

 

Jorge Hernandez, President

National Federation of the Blind of Florida
