[NFBV-Fairfax] Important NFBV Fairfax Chapter Virtual Meeting Thur, October 19, 7pm

Wed Oct 18 00:25:29 UTC 2023

All current and past members of the Fairfax Chapter of the NFBV, are
strongly urged to attend our next virtual Chapter meeting

Thursday, October 19, 2023

Starting at 7:00pm Eastern Time

Zoom log in information is further down in this message.

This Month's Discussions are important to the future of the Chapter:

*	We will be discussing the need for members to run for Chapter
Officer and board positions in our upcoming elections on November 16.  It is
critical that all officer positions be filled.  It is also highly
recommended that both board positions be filled.  For a Chapter to thrive,
members must be willing to step up and contribute, and one way is to fill an
office or board position.  Consider running for the office of President,
Vice President, Secretary or Treasurer, or for one of the two board
positions.  Competition is welcome and strongly encouraged.
*	As members, what do you want the Fairfax Chapter to look like?  What
are you willing to do to keep it going?  It is the membership of a Chapter
that drives it and without your ideas, dreams, wishes and desires for the
Chapter, the Chapter will cease to exist.

We just celebrated our 25th anniversary, and in order to make it to our 26th
and beyond, we need you.
