[NFBofAlaska] NFB Convention Banquet at the Alaska Center for the Blind and Visually Impaired

Wed Jul 7 00:07:52 UTC 2021

Greetings NFB Friends and Family,

If you are not aware, the climax to every NFB convention is the banquet
which includes awards, student scholarship winners and a message or "Banquet
Speech," from our National president. Mark Riccobono.  In 2019, we were
honored to have him attend our NFB of Alaska State Convention. 

There are plans to "drop in," on some banquets and I have offered to have a
"drop in," for our Alaska affiliate. That means we need to plan a banquet !

For starters, it will take place on Saturday, July 10, at 3:00 PM. You are
invited to join us as we enjoy food together after a long absence and listen
to the final events of #NFB21. To keep it simple, the NFB of Alaska will be
providing Moose's Tooth pizza and you are welcome to bring something to
share if you feel so inclined. 

Questions may be directed to President Bonnie Lucas at
lucas.bonnie at gmail.com <mailto:lucas.bonnie at gmail.com>  or by text or phone
to 907-301-6808. We wish all throughout the state could come but know that
is not possible. For those who cannot come to Anchorage, we hope you will be
on the Zoom platform or YouTube listening to the Banquet program with us. 

See you on Saturday!

Bonnie Lucas
President
National Federation of the Blind of Alaska

The National Federation of the Blind knows that blindness is not the
characteristic that defines you or your future. Every day we raise the
expectations of blind people, because low expectations create obstacles
between blind people and our dreams. You can live the life you want;
blindness is not what holds you back.

[Delegate-BML]
