We plan to attempt to make this a hybrid meeting so those of you attending the convention virtually can also join the caucus. However, we aren’t certain about the internet connectivity, so please don’t be angry if we can’t work it out. Do please try to join us either in person if you are in Orlando or virtually using the Zoom information below (hopefully it works). Those of you wishing to be part of Maryland’s banquet ticket exchange should bring your banquet tickets to the caucus, as I will be exchanging on July 5 so as to have enough time to get your tickets back to you. That means you need to pick up your registration packets on July 3 or 4 to have your banquet ticket with you at the caucus.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><a name="_Hlk75702620"><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;color:black'>Click this link to join: <o:p></o:p></span></a></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='mso-bookmark:_Hlk75702620'></span><a href="https://zoom.us/j/6248138327?pwd=eTZlYUgwR3ZQVVl1dXBLSHcrbml1QT09"><span style='mso-bookmark:_Hlk75702620'><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif'>https://zoom.us/j/6248138327?pwd=eTZlYUgwR3ZQVVl1dXBLSHcrbml1QT09</span></span><span style='mso-bookmark:_Hlk75702620'></span></a><span style='mso-bookmark:_Hlk75702620'><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;color:black'> <o:p></o:p></span></span></p><p class=MsoPlainText><span style='mso-bookmark:_Hlk75702620'><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;color:black'><o:p> </o:p></span></span></p><p class=MsoPlainText><span style='mso-bookmark:_Hlk75702620'><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;color:black'>Meeting ID: 624 813 8327<o:p></o:p></span></span></p><p class=MsoPlainText><span style='mso-bookmark:_Hlk75702620'><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;color:black'>One tap mobile<o:p></o:p></span></span></p><p class=MsoPlainText><span style='mso-bookmark:_Hlk75702620'><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;color:black'>+13017158592,,6248138327#<o:p></o:p></span></span></p><p class=MsoPlainText><span style='mso-bookmark:_Hlk75702620'><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;color:black'><o:p> </o:p></span></span></p><span style='mso-bookmark:_Hlk75702620'></span><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>Ronza Othman, </span></b><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>President</span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>National Federation of the Blind of Maryland<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>443-426-4110<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Pronouns: she, her, hers<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>The National Federation of the Blind of Maryland knows that blindness is not the characteristic that defines you or your future.
