[nfbwatlk] National Federation of the Blind of Washington 2013 Convention Alert

[Mike Freeman]

Greetings, Federationists and friends.

 

The NFB of Washington convention for 2013 will be upon us sooner than we
realize. It will again take place at the Holiday Inn Downtown-Everett, 3105
Pine Street, Everett, WA, on October 18, 19 and 20, 2013. You may make hotel
reservations by calling (425) 339-2000. When making your reservations,
please indicate that you will be attending the convention of the National
Federation of the Blind of Washington.

 

Room rates are the same as those for last year: $89 per night for singles
and doubles; $99 per night for triples and quads. There will be a tax of
approximately 15% added per night to the cost of a room.

 

As was the case last year, two meals will be provided: dinner on Friday
evening and a banquet meal on Saturday evening. If payment is received
before October 7, the cost per meal will be $35.00 and the cost of
registration will be $15.00. Thus, the total cost for the package of two
meals and registration will be $85.00. The cost for the package of one meal
and registration will be $50.00. I urge everyone to purchase both meals as
you won't want to miss the fellowship and camaraderie of the events
occurring during Friday evening's dinner and afterward and you won't want to
miss the convention banquet on Saturday evening.

 

If payment is received on or after October 7 or at the door, the cost per
meal will be $40.00 and the cost of registration will be $20.00. Thus, the
cost of the two-meal package will be $100.00 and the cost of one meal and
registration will be $60.00.

 

The cost of registration alone is $25.00.

 

Checks should be made payable to "National Federation of the blind of
Washington" or "NFBW" and may be sent to:

National Federation of the Blind of Washington

P.O. Box 2516

Seattle, WA 98111.

 

Start saving now for the 2013 convention of the National Federation of the
Blind of Washington. You won't want to miss it!
