[Nfbwv-talk] Federationists in Huntington are excited to announceSpring Seminar

[Joyce Porter]

Brad, I think we should definitely have the cane walk again.  I thought it
was a great public relations tool.  Besides, we always walked from Starbucks
and you know how much I like Starbucks. 

I'm going to look into the book festival tomorrow.  I think our seminar will
be great; I hope we can encourage the folks from Ohio and Kentucky to join
us.  

Joyce

Friends:

I just received final confirmation from the Public Library on our Seminar
date of May 11. If any members are interested in visiting Huntington either
Friday evening or over Saturday night I know that we will be pleased to
share some of Huntington's best food and entertainment. The Holiday Inn on
3rd Avenue is an easy walk from the Library. In years past we have had a
Cane Walk from Pullman Square to the Library to kick off our Seminar. I
don't know if we are planning to do this again. Stay tune for details, as
they say.
