We encourage all attendees to make their reservations as soon as possible to ensure your booking. The hotel information is below, including the convention code and direct booking link. The convention rate for Embassy Suites USF is $115 per night plus tax. Our convention runs from Friday, October 7 through the evening of Sunday, October 8. If you are planning to attend the banquet Sunday evening, you should reserve your room with a check-out date of Monday, October 9. Shoulder days are available, based upon hotel availability. The shoulder days are up to two days pre-convention and two days post-convention; this means that you can come early to Tampa and still pay the convention rate of $115 per night plus tax. Contact me or any member of our affiliate board if you have questions. Reserve as soon as possible! We have contracted for a certain number of room nights and the hotel does not have to guarantee the convention rate once our room block has been met. Additionally, shoulder days may be limited based upon hotel occupancy and reservations at the time of booking. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>2023 State Convention Hotel Information <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>When: October 6-8, 2023 <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Where: Embassy Suites USF <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>3705 Spectrum Boulevard <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Tampa, FL 33612 <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>(813) 977-7066<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Convention Code: NFBF <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Direct Booking Link: <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><table class=MsoNormalTable border=0 cellspacing=0 cellpadding=0 width=983 style='width:737.0pt;margin-left:-.15pt;border-collapse:collapse'><tr style='height:15.0pt'><td width=980 valign=top style='width:735.2pt;border-top:windowtext;border-left:windowtext;border-bottom:black;border-right:black;border-style:solid;border-width:1.0pt;padding:.75pt 5.4pt 0in 5.4pt;height:15.0pt'><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:black'><a href="https://www.hilton.com/en/book/reservation/deeplink/?ctyhocn=TPAFR&groupCode=NFB&arrivaldate=2023-10-05&departuredate=2023-10-09&cid=OM,WW,HILTONLINK,EN,DirectLink&fromId=HILTONLINKDIRECT">https://www.hilton.com/en/book/reservation/deeplink/?ctyhocn=TPAFR&groupCode=NFB&arrivaldate=2023-10-05&departuredate=2023-10-09&cid=OM,WW,HILTONLINK,EN,DirectLink&fromId=HILTONLINKDIRECT</a></span><o:p></o:p></p></td><td width=2 style='width:1.5pt;padding:0in 0in 0in 0in;height:15.0pt'><p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p></td><td width=0 style='width:.3pt;padding:0in 0in 0in 0in;height:15.0pt'></td></tr></table><p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='mso-ligatures:none'>Sincerely, <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='mso-ligatures:none'>Camille Tate <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='mso-ligatures:none'>2<sup>nd</sup> Vice President, National Federation of the Blind of Florida <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='mso-ligatures:none'>President, Melbourne Space Coast Chapter, National Federation of the Blind of Florida <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='mso-ligatures:none'>Phone: 321 372 4899 <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div></body></html>
