Good Evening Cleveland,

I trust all is well and I hope you are enjoying this great weather.

Well, it is time for our monthly Cleveland Chapter meeting.

We will meet on Friday, August 16, 2019 from 3:00 PM to 5:00 PM, at the Cleveland Sight Center. The location is 1909 E 101st Street, Cleveland, Ohio 44106. If you are unable to attend, although we would be honored to have your presence; the telephone number is (216) 658-4532.

Here are some announcements:

Cleveland, we are chartering a bus to the 2019 National Federation of the Blind of Ohio State Convention; which will be held at the DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel. The round trip cost to ride the bus is $65.00. The funds are due next Friday at the Chapter meeting. Please bring your funds to give to our Treasure, Natasha Ricks.

If you have not reserved your hotel room at the double Tree by Hilton Hotel for the Convention, please do so at (614) 885-3334. I am so elated that Cleveland has the largest reservations at the hotel to date. But, make your booking so that you are not at the over flow hotel. The room rates are $89.00 and it includes continental breakfast and Wi-Fi.

You can now register for the 2019 State of Ohio Convention. Click the link to register for the banquet and the One Touch Self-Defense Classes as well. Here is the link

Also, Cleveland will have a second Popcorn run; since some members did not get the opportunity to participate, and outside persons are requesting more of the products. We will have order forms for those who wish to have them at the meeting next week.

As we wined down the 2019 fiscal year, our Recreation and Special Event Chairs have a treat in store for us at the meeting. Bring your appetite and wear your NFB gear; or bring your membership coins. Everyone who has them will be put into a raffel for prizes. Note!. 2019 is the last year that we end our business for the organization by September. Cleveland’s fiscal year will now start in January 2020 and end in December of each year.

The Gavel Report is due by October 1, 2019, so I will be taking information of your community service and participation in the community, church and more to add to the report. I am looking for a repeat by Cleveland to win the Gavel again in November.

Cleveland will vote in new members and conduct their New Membership Seromony next week; for the following:

Jeanette Foote

Ted Foote

Renee Arrington-Johnson

Alonzo Thorpe

Ronda Thorpe

Mya Thorpe

It is time for Cleveland’s elections. The position of President, Vice President, 2nd Vice President, Recording Secretary, Treasurer and two Board Seats will be open in November.  Evelyn Morrson-Eaddie has accepted to become our Nominating Committee Chairperson. If you would like to submit your name for nomination, please reach out to her by telephone or email.

(216) 851-7226

Finally, there are several events that Cleveland will engage with in the next few weeks. We need volunteers to assist. Please pay attention to the 23rd event; because this is one of our own and I need all members to attend at Cleveland State. I need volunteers for multiple duties.

You can live the life you want; blindness is not what holds you back.
