>>From the Editor: Dan Hicks is president of the NFB of Florida. He and the 
>>rest of
> the Floridians are getting ready for a memorable convention. Rooms at our 
> headquarters
> hotel are going fast, so make your reservations today.
> This is what Dan has to say:
> Everybody knows July in Orlando is hot. Anyone who has ever been to a 
> convention
> of the National Federation of the Blind also knows that the hottest place 
> to be the
> first part of this July will be the 2011 convention of the NFB, which will 
> be held
> July 3 through 8 at the Rosen Shingle Creek Resort. If you haven't yet 
> made your
> hotel reservations, now is the time. Just call (866) 996-6338 and tell the 
> friendly
> reservationist that you want those great NFB convention rates.
> The Rosen Shingle Creek is as nearly perfect a hotel for our needs as we 
> could ever
> hope for. It is one of Orlando's newest and most respected meeting 
> destinations.
> The resort features golf courses, four swimming pools, a full-service 
> fitness center
> and spa, and nearly half a million square feet of meeting space. You can 
> bet we will
> be using much or all of this space for our convention. One of the truly 
> marvelous
> attributes we can look forward to is that our meeting rooms will all be in 
> the same
> location. Among the luxurious amenities of the sleeping rooms and suites, 
> you will
> find: ultra-comfortable Creek sleeper beds, thirty-two-inch flat screen 
> TVs, high-speed
> Internet connection capabilities, two telephones, hairdryers, plush robes, 
> mini-refrigerators,
> coffeemakers, first-class toiletries, and laptop safes. The hotel features 
> a number
> of award-winning restaurants, bars, and other eateries; is very close to 
> dozens of
> famous restaurants on Orlando's International Drive; and is across the 
> street from
> a Publix Supermarket. The hotel will help you with reasonably priced 
> travel to and
> from any of these destinations. Ask about the NFB convention rates for 
> this transportation,
> which at press time is expected to be $5 per vehicle to travel to or from 
> Publix
> and $10 per vehicle to travel to or from destinations on International 
> Drive. Our
> low convention rates are legendary, and at $63 a night (plus tax) a 
> convention vacation
> stay in this hotel will create memories you and your family and friends 
> will treasure
> forever. The Rosen Shingle Creek Resort has given us our fantastic hotel 
> rates from
> June 28 through July 14, 2011, so plan on coming a couple of days early or 
> leaving
> a few days after the convention ends. There is much to do in the central 
> Florida
> area, home of Universal Studios Orlando, Disney, SeaWorld, and the Kennedy 
> Space
> Center.
> NFB members Cheryl Echevarria of Echevarria Travel and Maurice Shackelford 
> of Peachtreetravel.net
> are working with the Florida affiliate on exciting tours for July 9, 2011, 
> and other
> days as well. If you are staying later or coming to Orlando earlier, 
> contact them
> for the latest tour and travel information. Please see their accompanying 
> information-packed
> article in this issue.
> Even if you've been to dozens of NFB conventions, you've never been to one 
> as hot
> as this one is shaping up to be. We'll have plenty of really cool things 
> to do and
> lots of cool drinks and air conditioning. See you all in Orlando.
