[NFBV-Alexandria] Notice of Chapter meeting on Thursday, October 26, 7:00pm

[BrianMiller]

Good afternoon!

 

I wanted to remind everyone that our next Greater Alexandria chapter meeting
will take place on Thursday, October 26, at 7:00pm. We will be in our new
location, which is as follows:

 

Meridian at Eisenhower Station

2351 Eisenhower Ave

Alexandria, VA 22314

 

The building is literally across the street from the Eisenhower Avenue metro
station. We will meet in the clubhouse, which is on the 25th floor. When you
come in the Meridian, the front desk is on your right, and the elevator
foyer is right in front of you. Any of the four elevators will take you to
the top floor where the clubhouse is. You may need to get the front desk
person to send you up if there are no residents on your elevator. The
clubhouse is just a few steps from the elevator once you exit. 

 

There are tables and kitchen facilities in the clubhouse, so feel free to
bring your dinner, or a snack to sustain you through the exciting evening.

 

We have a number of exciting things on our agenda, including:

 

*Final preparations for state convention in November, including making sure
there are volunteers for our exhibit hall chapter table on Friday, Nov 3 -
Evelyn, 5 minutes;

*A demonstration of the talking prescription bottle system - Wanda and
Terri, 10 minutes;

*A presentation on the new Smart 911 program in Alexandria - Joanne
Maldanado, emergency communications manager, 15 minutes;

*Toy drive in Alexandria - Wanda, 5 minutes;

*A preview of the Do You Dream In Color documentary, including a behind the
scenes introduction by one of the two film makers - Sarah Ivy Dickerson, 15
minutes;

*Other chapter announcements. 

 

After Ivy shares a few thoughts about the film, we will watch the first half
hour or so to whet our appetites for the screening at state convention on
November 4. For those who wish, all are welcome to stay and watch the entire
86 minute documentary. 

 

There's so much going on, you don't want to miss it! So make your plans now
to attend on October 26.

 

If you have any questions, do not hesitate to email or call. 

 

See you then!

 

Brian R. Miller, Ph.D.

President

Greater Alexandria Chapter of the NFB of Virginia
