[NFBMO] NFBMO Convention News update #3: Deadlines are near

[GeneCoulter at Charter.net]

Greetings:

The deadlines are fast approaching for those coming to convention. A month
from today we will be celebrating in St. Louis  and being enjoying our 61st
annual banquet.

The deadline for child care requests is March24. The deadline to make hotel
reservations is March27. Finally, the deadline for pre-registration is April
4. So, it is time to take action as our registration and hotel reservation
numbers are still too low!

Here is what you can do:

First call the St. Louis Airport Hilton Hotel at   314-426-5500 and make
your reservations for the convention; our group code is National Blind. I
cannot make meal plans until they are satisfied that we will meet our
contracted obligation.

Second, Go to the state convention link at www.NFBMo.org
<http://www.NFBMo.org>  and either register for the convention on-line or
print out the convention packet. IMPORTANT: If you choose the Frugal
Federationist package you should leave the number of people  registering,
banquet meals, and Saturday lunch at zero unless you are purchasing
additional meals for guests. . Of course if you are interested in Friday
lunch or prayer breakfast  you will need to select these.

Third, if you know of any  business, organization, or person whom might be
interested in exhibiting or sponsoring our convention feel to reach out to
them  letting them know that they can signup at the state convention link at
our website. 

Please check out the exhibitor list below to see if I left anyone off.

Help us make this a great convention!

One  additional note, applications for convention assistance from the George
and Gwen Rittgers fund are no longer open. 

Greet you all in St. Louis,

Eugene Coulter, Convention Coordinator
