<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">It is November and much to our delight, turkeys are meeting their maker. Thanksgiving is rapidly approaching. It is the time for family and friends to get together for fun, fellowship, and feeding. Of course it really is the time for
all of us to reflect and give thanks for our blessings and successes. We in the Potomac Chapter and the Federation have much to be thankful for. As a part of the Federation family, we will share in the warmth of good fellowship and learning together.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Please join us for our November chapter meeting. Everyone is welcome.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The Potomac Chapter NFBV will meet at 7:00 pm, November 14 at St. George’s Episcopal Church. The address is 915 North Oakland Street, Arlington Virginia 22201. We meet in room 114.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black;background:white">We will discuss our recent state convention, our holiday dinner, the distribution of coins, among other items.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">If you are available, I hope you are able to join some of your fellow Federationists before the meeting for dinner at 5:30 pm on Thursday October 10 at Cosi, 3503 Fairfax Drive. It is on the corner across Monroe and Fairfax Drive from
the Virginia Square Metro. Unfortunately, I am unable to participate this month.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I am very much looking forward to seeing you at the meeting.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">4 After crossing Nelson Street continue for an additional block with Fairfax Drive on your right. You will reach Oakland Street. Turn left on Oakland and an almost immediate left through a small parking lot.
