[nfbmi-talk] Airport Monthly Meeting

[Cathy Koyanagi]

​Friends,
I attended the Airport meeting yesterday.   I would like to extend a
grateful thank you to Ody NorNorkin for his support and ride.  Others who
attended was Michael, Sabrina, and Joe.  All for of us spoke and not only
was our names announce, so was our chapters.

The next meeting is in November.  I encourage you to make an effort to
attend.  And I encourage you to ask your disabled friends who are in
scooters, wheelchairs, and other disabilities to attend.   This is a
disable issue and we need to have the other areas represented.
Collectively we will have a stronger voice and impact.
