Hello,

I enjoyed our conversation, here is the information about the Kansas State convention, that will be held in Wichita Kansas, on November 3rd - 5th. The announcement of NFB's President Mark Riccobono, visit is not part of the email. Because it was only confirmed at last Saturday's (10/08/23) board meeting. For more detailed information, about his visit. Please contact President Tom Page or second vice president- Donna Wood. Her contact information is down below in the email.

Best regards,

Michael

**Private voting is a right, it should not require sight. 
<https://nfbmo.org/PrivateVoting>**

The National Federation of the Blind 
knows that blindness is not the characteristic that defines you or your 
future. Every day we raise the expectations of blind people, because low 
expectations create obstacles between blind people and our dreams. You can 
live the life you want; blindness is not what holds you back.
