Reports and Branding
There was no treasurer's report for this month, as Gina is away taking care of family.
The April 2024 minutes were read. Susan moved, Arlie seconded, to approve the minutes. The motion passed.
New Business
There is an action item for a bill in the House of Representatives regarding access to airlines and other entertainment. The bill number is H.R. 3935. The bill would increase accessibility of in-flight entertainment, as well as create a pilot for service animal users to register their animals rather than completing a form each time.
The NFB has received two large donations for the Blind Movement Museum in Baltimore.
Arlie discussed swag options for upcoming membership opportunities. $200 is not enough for something of quality. Mickie moved and Pat seconded to allow up to $500. The motion passed.
The president's desk email from Richard was read, with several topics of importance.
Pat will call to register for Relay for Life, which is June 7 from 6-midnight.
A webinar will be held to follow up after the eclipse soundscapes project. Several of our chapter members will be in attendance.
Aleeha will create a Google account and Google voice for the chapter, which will help during times of transition.
Our next meeting will be June 8, 2024, at 10:00 AM.
Respectfully Submitted,
Aleeha Dudley, Secretary
National Federation of the Blind of Ohio, Springfield Chapter
