Soon I will be sending out information about how you can apply for financial 
support for the Convention this summer in Detroit.

Probably with my next update sometime next week.

I do want you however to be aware of three things right now.

1 Preregistration opened yesterday March 1st so you can save 5 dollars on 
your banquet tickets and 5 dollars on your registration so go to nfb.org and 
get it done ok?

Of course if you are going to need help in this area we will get it done at 
the appropriate time.

2 Security will be very tight for this Convention because of the hotels 
location and building structure.

It will be very difficult to bring large items in to the lobby  even from 
the bus.

Their are no refrigerators in any of the rooms so it will be very difficult 
to get large coolers in to this hotel.

The good thing is that it has a great Food Court wich you will hear more 
about as we get closer I'm sure.

3 Finally, I have our share of the Jernigan raffle tickets and so 
individuals and chapters can claim them even before the April 25th Board 
meeting just  tell me you want them and send me the  money for them.

Remember they are 10 dollars each and the prize is a trip to next years 
Convention and one thousand dollars in cash and the winner need not be 
present.

Stay tuned, more to come  soon.
