•	Transportation: IT'S FREE! This year, the bus trip to Columbus is
free to everyone registering for convention. This is not a mistake,
all you have to do is pre-register and the cost of your seat on the
bus is fully covered by the National Federation of the Blind of
Nebraska. The bus makes stops in Omaha, Lincoln and York before making
its way to Columbus. Individuals living outside of the planned bus
route, such as the western part of the state are encouraged to contact
President Amy Buresh to request assistance with the cost of
transportation to convention.
The bus is being arranged by your state affiliate of the National
Federation of the Blind of Nebraska and made possible through
Fontenelle Tours and Arrow Stage Motor coach Lines. Reservations can
be made when registering for the convention online at:
http://www.ne.nfb.org/2019
If you are not able for any reason to reserve your seat on the bus
using the online link, or if you need additional information regarding
the locations of boarding sites, please contact Jeff Altman directly
at: debandjeff at allophone.com, or by calling (402) 489-9458 during
evening and weekend hours to make other arrangements.

•	Pre-register and Save Cash: Prices all increase by $5 after October
4th. Visit http://www.ne.nfb.org/2019 to take advantage of early-bird
prices.

•	The National Federation of the Blind knows that blindness is not the
characteristic that defines you or your future.  Come to the
convention to pan for nuggets of gold that will make you rich with the
sure-fire knowledge that blindness does not hold you back!
