[Nfbv-announce] Have your technology questions answered at this year's 2011 NFBV convention

[John Bailey]

Here is just one of the many great things you'll experience at the 2011 
convention of the national Federation of the blind of Virginia

Oh, All Those Exhibits:
One thing that is great about any convention is that it brings people from 
all over to one location where everyone can meet and share information. 
Another great thing is that when you get a large group of people together, 
you will also attract vendors.

At this year's convention, you won’t want to miss visiting all the vendors 
who will have tables filled with the products they sell. This is a great 
opportunity to get some "hands-on" experience with some of the latest 
technology designed specifically for the vision impaired. Also, who better 
to ask questions than those who sell it. No more trading phone calls or 
emails to get your questions answered. You can talk to them face-to-face .

The exhibit hall will open after the state board meeting on Friday. The hall 
will be open 12:00 P.M. till 5:00 P.M.  The exhibit hall will be located in 
the Atlantic Foyer. Bring your lists of questions as well as your shopping 
list!

This year's convention is hosted by the Chesapeake Bay Chapter of the 
National Federation of the Blind of Virginia. The convention will be held at 
Wyndham Virginia Beach Oceanfront hotel, 5700 Atlantic Avenue Virginia 
Beach, Virginia 23451 (757) 428-7025 or (800) 365-3032

While you are enjoying all that this year's convention has to offer, come 
join me at this year's Rookie Round-Up Reception. The reception is for all 
those first-time convention attendees who want to learn more about the NFB 
and also about all the other great activities during the weekend. The 
reception will run from 6:30 P.M. - 7:30 P.M. in the James Room. Were we 
will have lots of fun sprinkled with great information for those new to the 
NFB and our convention. Hope to see you there!
