Book Club is up and running. Sorry for any inconvenience this may have
caused.  Please consider participating; see details below:



*All Are Invited to participate in a Spring Personal Challenge; Sponsored

Is there something new you???ve always wanted to try but just never made the
time for it? Would you like to resume something that you haven't done for
some time? Then sign up for our Spring Personal Challenge; Sponsored by the
NFBNJ Sports & Recreation Division which will run from April 17th to May

Your challenge does not have to be sports related. It can be an activity

meeting, going to coffee after a chapter meeting with a new or inactive
member, reconnecting with a friend over lunch, seeing a show, or achieving
a personal goal. A suggested NFB recommended reading list will be sent to
registered participants.

Also, kindly consider sharing this challenge with other blind or vision
impaired individuals so they can enjoy partaking in this opportunity as
well. Non NFBNJ members are welcomed, let???s share the gift of the
federation with them. For challenge questions please contact Linda
