have presently on this topic! Here again is the message from David Andrews

Washington Seminar
Fellow Federationists:
It is time to make your plans to attend the 2014 National Federation of
the Blind Washington Seminar. This annual event is our opportunity to
meet with our congressional representatives and their staff members in
their Washington offices to discuss issues of great importance to the
blind of America. If you have never been, I highly encourage you to
consider attending as it is an exciting few days where we have a chance
to make a significant impact to our future as blind people.
The 2014 Washington Seminar will take place from Monday January 27
through Thursday January 30. The Great-Gathering-In, the first meeting
of all those in attendance (our legislative pep rally as it were), will
begin at 5:00 on Monday the 27th. Our legislative appointments will
hopefully all take place on Tuesday, but may take place on Wednesday
depending on the legislator's schedules.
As in previous years, the Washington Seminar hotel will be the Holiday
Inn Capitol, 550 C ST SW. Room rates are $177 plus a 14.5% sales tax
($202.67 total) for singles, doubles, triples, and quads. Room
reservations should not be made through the hotel, but should be made
by contacting Lisa Bonderson at (303) 778-1130, extension 219 or by
emailing lbonderson at cocenter.org.
Again, I highly encourage you to make plans to attend the 2014
Washington Seminar. it is an experience not to be missed.
Thanks to Tony Olivero from Nebraska for writing the above and allowing
me to steal his words.
Dave
