[Oabs] Take advantage of my busyness

[Lillie Pennington]

Hello Darian,

Thank you for your kind message, as well as your continual support to this
devision and its members, as well as the national association of blind
students. 

I hope OABS can expand the devision in the coming years. 

Thank you, 

Lillie

Dear OABS,
  My bet is on you all to win the most improved  division award. As far as I
have been able to tell you all have been one of the more active  divisions
as it relates to growing your effort with ideas an leadership.
 seems as if you all have had people that were active in various aspects of
your  affiliate. From Aleeha's involvement with the affiliate fundraising
effort at  national convention, to both her and kaiti's  involvement in NABS
committees, Emily and her involvement including the great honor of winning
our national scholarship, Lilly  and her leadership in stem 2 U.
 This  division has done a great job as it has been spearheaded by both
President Shelton and Vice-President Dudley.  There was a point where I had
heard of serious concern of the future of the Ohio Association of Blind
Students, but that seems to be so long ago due to the individual and
collective efforts  of all of it's members.
 You show by your actions that blind students in Ohio can live the lives
they want. 
 I am super excited for the future and  proud of all of you today.
  respectfully,
  Darian
