[NFBMD] Next TLC Chapter Meeting Tomorrow, August 13 (Virtual)

[Ellen Ringlein]

Dear TLC Chapter Members and Friends,

 

Our TLC chapter meeting is coming up tomorrow; we will be meeting virtually
over Zoom on Tuesday, August 13. Our regular meeting date is the second
Tuesday of the month. The official meeting is scheduled to run from 7:00 to
9:00 PM; the meeting will be preceded and followed by fifteen minutes of
social time for those who would like to mix and mingle with chapter members
and friends. We use the NFB of Maryland's Zoom account when we meet
virtually (Zoom details are at the end of this message). 

 

During the meeting We will be talking about what is going on at NFB at the
chapter, affiliate and national levels. I am sure those who attended our
National Convention last month either in person or virtually may also share
their favorite convention experience. And we will, of course, hear about a
helpful hint from a member. 

 

We will also discuss Dan Tevelde's article "Simple Accessibility Solutions"
from the May 2024 issue of the Braille Monitor, the NFB's flagship
publication. Below are links to text and audio versions of this short
article.
