We do need some members to help represent the chapter and answer questions attendees might have about our organization at our table at the AccessAbility Fest and White Cane Day. If only for 15 minutes, any help is appreciated so one person does not have to do it for hours without a break. If you do not know the answer to a question you can take the persons contact information and somebody will send them information later. If you would like to help send an email to wwalker@nfbtx.org to let me know you want to volunteer.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Upcoming event information:<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>AccessAbility Fest<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal> Saturday, October 5th from 9am to 2pm<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal> Milam Park<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal> 500 W Commerce St, San Antonio, TX 78207<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>www.accessabilityfest.com<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>please register its free<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>60th Annual White Cane Day<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Tuesday, October 15, <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>9:30AM set up for White Cane Walk<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>9:45AM White Cane Walk<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>10AM Start of Program<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Featured speaker Michael McCullouch from iBUG Today <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>ViaTrans drop off address 611 Hemisfair BLVD (Commonwealth Coffee)<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>October Chapter Meeting and Annual blood Drive<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Saturday, October 19<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>You do not have to donate to attend meeting<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>If you do want to donate you must make your own appointment and your donation time can be before, during or after the meeting.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Donor Pavilion (building has a heart on the top of the building on all four sides)<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>6211 I-10 West Bldg 2<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>San Antonio, TX 78201<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>210-731-5555<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>donor.southtexasblood.org <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>TEXAS NFB State Convention<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>November 8 to 10<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Crown Plaza Dallas Downtown<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>1015 Elm Street<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>$129 per night plus fees (price includes two breakfast per room each day)<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>registration open to November 1<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>cost for pre-registration is $25 and $45 for banquet<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>includes welcome dinner on Friday night in registration fee <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>registration and banquet tickets cost more after November 1.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>https://nfbtx.org/affiliate-convention<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Best regards,<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Wendy Walker<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>President<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>San Antonio Chapter<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>National Federation of the Blind of Texas<o:p></o:p></p></div></body></html>
