[Nfbwv-talk] You Are Invited

Wed Feb 22 20:24:33 UTC 2012

I hope you got my and Mary Ann's reservations as well as Joe and Brad.  Call
or e-mail me if I need to do anything else.  I'll send Marcus a check for
meals next week.  Just let me know that you got this message.  Do you need a
credit card number for the second night or how are we working it?

This is being sent to you as a reminder.  Please review the message below.
I have only heard from a few people who wish me to make their room
reservations.  

Greetings Fellow Federationists, 

I hope this message finds you doing well and enjoying the New Year.  

Please be aware that a Leadership Seminar will take place on March 30 and 31
at the Days Inn located in Bridgeport, West Virginia.  This Leadership
Seminar is being hosted by our national office and the Affiliate Action
Department.  Jason Ewell of the Affiliate Action Department will be
conducting this seminar.  

Please be aware that you will need to arrive during the afternoon of March
30 as the seminar is scheduled to begin at 7:30 that evening.  The seminar
will begin again at 9:00 a.m. and continue throughout the entire day of
Saturday, March 31.  

Our national office will pay for one night's lodging and attendees will be
responsible for the second night's lodging of $65.  All attendees are
responsible for their own meals.  Wherever possible, there should be at
least two people per sleeping room so that funds can be used affectively.  

The cost of sleeping rooms includes a continental breakfast that sounds like
it is going to be more than coffee and pastries.  

So that we can use our time affectively for the seminar, dinner on Friday
night and lunch on Saturday will be catered through the Best Western.  The
cost for each meal is $15 a person for a total cost of $36 a person which
includes gratuity.  Dinner on Friday evening will begin at 6:00 p.m. and
will include chicken strips, twice baked potatoes, tossed salad, green
beans, rolls and butter, and coffee.  Lunch on Saturday will be from noon
until 1:15 and will include your choice of rigatoni and meatballs, chicken
alfredo, tossed salad, pasta salad, garlic bread, and coffee.  You are
requested to make your check for these two meals payable to the National
Federation of the Blind of West Virginia in the amount of $36 and mail your
check to Treasurer Marcus Soulsby at 5309 Venable Avenue; Charleston, WV
25304.  Please mail your check to Marcus no later than March 15, 2012. This
money is not refundable except in the event of an emergency as we will have
an obligation to the Best Western.  

Dinner on Saturday evening will be on your own.  After dinner on Saturday
evening, please return to the meeting room for Federation fellowship.  If
you wish, please bring a snack item such as cookies, cake, chips, party mix,
or something of that nature to share with everyone so we can snack while we
visit with one another.  I will be providing the plates, napkins, and
plastic ware.  Sheri is bringing bottled water.  

Please RSVP to me no later than Tuesday, February 21, 2012, by replying to
this message or via E-mail at cs.nfbwv at frontier.com or by calling
304-672-3445.  

This Leadership Seminar will be followed by a board meeting of the National
Federation of the Blind of West Virginia on Sunday, April first.  

I am excited about this seminar and the opportunity to spend time with my
Federation family.  

Charlene Smyth

NFBWV President
