[NFBJ] NFB in Judaism Group Annual Meeting

[Rachael D Hudson]

Good morning,
I will not be attending national convention, so I haven’t checked into it. However, my recommendation is usually to call the local. Chabad. 512-977-0770 is the number I found online. I hope this helps!

Mr Prost,

Apologies. Searching online and using AI tools I find no Kosher restaurants
in walking distance from the NFB hotels in Austin. Have you or others in
NFBJ found any Kosher restaurants?

Best,



DON WINIECKI
