Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, it will be held online. At this time, the platform for our virtual National Convention has not been released. Once it has, I will pass along the information. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>The convention will be held July 14-18. Some of the elements of an in-person convention will remain the same as always, but some content will be adjusted to fit an online platform. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Registration deadline is June 15. You must be registered to receive door prizes (this is one part of the convention that is remaining the same). Registration is free, but you must be registered. Additionally, you must also be current in your dues if you wish to participate in elections or vote on Resolutions. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Please visit nfb.org and click on National Convention. Follow the prompts in the registration form to register. If you do not have an email address to receive your registration materials, please let me know as soon as possible. There is a printable form you can fill out. If you still need assistance, please contact me. I have to turn in certain information to our affiliate President for those members who have difficulty registering online for the convention. That deadline is June 7. Please reach out to me before that date so we can get you taken care of. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>My contact information is below in my email signature.
