[NFBF-Tampa] NFBF 50th Anniversary Oral History Project: Please share your NFBF memories now!

[danjhicks at gmail.com]

Hello fellow Florida Federation members, 

 

I wish to remind all of you who have not  called in to the National
Federation of the Blind of Florida's NFBF 50th Anniversary History Memory
Hotline to please do so right away!

 

The number to call is: 813-254-8249.  You will be prompted to leave a
message with your NFBF memories. You can call more than once. 

 

The reason we need to gather your personal stories, memories, impressions,
and accounts of the accomplishments and happenings of the National
Federation of the Blind of Florida, so that we can include them in our Oral
History Project, to be heard at our 50th anniversary convention, which will
take place October 2, 3, and 4.

 

This is a project to which we can all contribute. And, I think it will be a
lot of fun or everyone involved. 

 

To make this even more fun and exciting, there will be a drawing from among
the names of everyone who participates and five winners will each receive
one of five $10.00 Amazon gift cards. The drawing will take place at the
upcoming NFBF State Convention. You do not need to be present to win, but
please make sure to leave your name a contact information, so we can
recognize you and get you your gift card, if you are a winner. Each name
will only be entered once, but please feel free to call in as often as you
like, as often as you come up with new memories and stories to share. By
leaving a message on this line, you are giving your permission for us to use
it in the NFBF 50th Anniversary Oral History. Of course, all recordings will
be edited for brevity and clarity 

 

Again, that number is 813-254-8249, and it is available 24 hours a day.
Please call as soon as you can, and as often as you wish. It would be very
helpful if I could have these stories and memories gathered as soon as
possible. 

 

If you have any questions, or prefer and one-on-one interview to tell your
story, please write to me at history at nfbflorida.org or you can text or call
me at 813-943-5544.

 

Please share this email. I look forward to hearing and sharing your memories
and ideas.

 

Dan Hicks, Chairperson

NFBF 50th Anniversary Oral History Project
