<html><head><meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"></head><body dir="auto"><div>Good summer morning everyone.</div><div><br></div><div>Thank you Deanna for sharing the yummy menu scheduled for tomorrow. So many of us are looking forward to gathering tomorrow in person for our State Convention!</div><div><br></div><div>If anyone is bringing a sighted family member or friend, I would like to ask for their help to make our dining experience run as smoothly as possible. Feel free to forward this email on to any willing volunteers.</div><div><br></div><div>When our lunch break begins, we all will remain in our seats. As our space will be limited and unfamiliar, the plan is for food to be served to everyone as we are seated at our tables. Each volunteer will choose a food item to bring around the room and put on our plates that will be sitting on the tables in front of us. Drinks will be delivered around the room in the same way. Once everything is served, we can either raise our hands or speak to a sightrd individual at our table as our specific needs arise.</div><div><br></div><div>We can all try to help this work by taking a look at the menu below and thinking about what we would like to eat tomorrow. We will also try to read the menu just before the food starts circulating around the room. We also can help by remaining in our seats until our plates have everything we want, and then get up as needed to go to the restroom or get a breath of fresh air outside. Just make sure you come back to the right plate!</div><div><br></div><div>I am borrowing this idea from my times spent at Blind Camp at Camp Lawroweld. I think it will work, and we can chat after the Convention to see if we want to do things differently next year. See you tomorrow!</div><div><br></div><div>Dana<br><div dir="ltr">Sent from my iPad</div><div dir="ltr"><br><blockquote type="cite">On Sep 19, 2023, at 6:26 PM, Deanna O'Brien via NHLakesChapter <nhlakeschapter@nfbnet.org> wrote:<br><br></blockquote></div><blockquote type="cite"><div dir="ltr">
