Greetings affiliate/chapter presidents and Meet the Blind Month planners:

Once again, we are only days away from our National Convention in Detroit, Michigan.  This message is a reminder of the Meet The Blind Month Activities and Other Special Events Seminar on Sunday afternoon, July 5, from 3:15  p.m. to 4:45 p.m., in the  Duluth B Room,  Level 5.

Find out about entertaining and fun events that you can plan for your affiliate or chapter's Meet the Blind Month in October.  A new component of Meet the Blind Month this year is Who's Whozit.  Learn who Whozit is and Whatzit all about.  

Pickup ideas and strategies for planning other special events.   We encourage you to attend this seminar, or send a representative to share your ideas and learn what other Meet the Blind Month activities are being planned for this year. 

In 2008, the NFB organized more than 400 events nationwide.  I anticipate that we will exceed that number in 2009      

Effective and successful events take time to plan properly, organize, and advertise.  Make your upcoming events as successful as possible by learning techniques used by Federationists around the country.

Looking forward to your attendance.

Best regards,

Jerry
