The first Saturday in January just passed me by so I completely thought that our All State Meeting was going to happen on January 16. However, thanks to Candy Powell, our ever-mindful board member, I was reminded that according to our normal meeting schedule, we should be having a meeting tomorrow, January 9. However, due to the lateness of the day and lack of planning for tomorrow, I am proposing that we put our meeting off until the following week, January 16. For me, having a meeting that has some planning, even a week late, would be more productive than having our meeting on Saturday January 9, just because that’s the schedule. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>So, we hope you can join us on January 16. Another informational email will be sent around Thursday of next week. We look forward to sharing and conversing with everyone at that time. Thanks to Candy for her prompting today! See you in a week!<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Bonnie Lucas<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>President<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>National Federation of the Blind of Alaska<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>907-301-6808<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><a href="mailto:nfbofalaska@gmail.com"><span style='color:blue'>nfbofalaska@gmail.com</span></a><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><a href="mailto:nfbofalaska@gmail.com"><span style='color:blue'>nfbalaska.org</span></a><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'><a name="_Hlk16627103">The National Federation of the Blind knows that blindness is not the characteristic that defines you or your future.
