</b>It’s not too late! The 2014 NFB Agenda is out. I know that everyone
is booked with many items, but please consider volunteering at the
Braille Book Fair. The Braille Book Fair has become one of the highlights
of the convention for many teachers, parents, blind kids, blind parents,
and adult beginning Braille readers. But the event could not take
place without the help of many dedicated, talented volunteers. And
that's where you come in. As a past worker, or simply interested
supporter of the Braille Book Fair, I hope you can either volunteer, or
give me the contact information for someone that you recommend.<br><br>
<b><i>Note: If you are a parent of a blind child under the age 18
(or still in high school or below), we know that you will want to attend
the NOPBC Annual Meeting which takes place just before the BBF, but we
would welcome you to work either during the event or on the clean-up
shift after the event.<br><br>
</i></b>You do not need to work the entire afternoon or evening, but I do
ask that you try to work an <b>entire shift.</b> Shifts are as
follows:<br>
<b>Noon - 2:00 pm</b>opening and sorting<br><br>
<b>2:00 - 3:30 pm</b>--sort, pair up volumes, weed out and/or toss
unusable books **<br><br>
<b>3:30 - 4:30 pm</b> Continue sorting, organize books on tables and
store overflow **<br>
<b>4:30 - 5:00 pm</b> prepare tables and familiarize yourself with the
books<br><br>
<b>5:00 - 7:00 pm</b> The Event, Job A: Assist Customers<br>
<b>5:00 - 7:30 pm </b>The Event, Job B: Pack Books... up for
customers. <br><br>
<b>6:30 - 8:00 pm (We are frequently done by 7:00 pm) </b>Clean-up
trash. <br>
** (NOTE: Some good Braille readers are especially needed for this
shift. Also need "runners" to take boxes, books, etc. to
other locations in the room as they are needed)<br><br>
Please contact me with your availability. Texting and email is best.
