Please circulate the following message as widely as possible.

 

November 24, 2008

 

            The Board of Directors of the National Association of Guide Dog
Users (NAGDU), a strong and proud division of the National Federation of the
Blind, is soliciting input from its members and potential members. We are
considering changes to our membership dues and amendments to our national
and affiliate division constitutions. In the true spirit of Federation
democracy and collective action, the NAGDU Board is asking you to provide
your input and suggestions. We especially want to hear from those of you who
are members of state affiliate Divisions, as this will have the greatest
impact on you!

            The next meeting of the NAGDU Board will be held via
teleconference on Sunday, November 30 at 8:00 pm Eastern (7:00 pm Central,
6:00 pm Mountain, 5:00 pm pacific). The call-in instructions are pasted
below my signature. Since we consider any guide dog user, future guide dog
user, or anyone who has an interest in guide dog related issues a potential
member, anyone who fits one of these categories is welcome to participate. 

            The National Association of Guide Dog Users is also planning
some dynamic, interesting teleconference discussions and training workshops
in 2009. Details of these events will be posted to the NAGDU mailing list,
so you may want to subscribe to this special interest list sponsored by the
National Federation of the Blind. To subscribe, go to

click on "Join or drop NFB mailing lists, find the link to the National
Association of Guide Dog Users, and complete the subscription information.
Again, you need not be a member of the National Federation of the Blind or
the National Association of Guide Dog Users to be a part of our group lists.
