Attached to this email is a great article from the Columbia Missouri
newspaper about last weekend's Missouri affiliates state convention.

 

It is worth reading.

Subject: [Chapter-presidents] NFB of Missouri Convention in the news

 

Hello, Fellow Chapter Presidents:

 

The NFB of Missouri Convention held last weekend in Jefferson City, Missouri
made the local news.

ederation-of-the-blind-chapter-meeting-in-jc-this-weekend/720605/

 

Other than the fact that they call our affiliate a chapter, the article is
accurate since it is based on a press release put out by our Public
Relations Committee, which I chair.

 

In addition, a reporter from KOMU 8 News in Columbia, Missouri came to the
convention and she interviewed both President Mark Riccobono and state
President Shelia Wright:
