[Ohio-talk] This Past Weekend In Cincinnati

[Walter Mitchell]

Hello Everyone,

I have read some of the messages that has been circulated. I am so happy
that so many of you have participated and enjoyed this event. I hope that we
can organize more events like this in the future.

It is very important to me to thank those that was involved from the
beginning to plan, organize alert the community and actually make it happen.

Sheri Albers and Darwin Walker stuck right in there with me while I came up
with my outlandish ideas, but we made it happen. Some of you know that
during the final stages of this event, I got sick and is now still
recovering, but they stepped in and kept it moving forward. Thank you two
and I love you for that, as well many other professional aspects that you
two possess.

As soon as the event was over, I began to receive phone calls from friends
that wanted to express just how they enjoyed the event.

We have two opportunities for recordings. I will keep you posted.

Much Love,
Walter Mitchell

I agree with Kaiti and I too would love to hear from those that attended our
last campaign event in Cincinnati on Saturday May 30th.

>From my perspective, it was a lot of fun and in my opinion, the star was
Emily Pennington!

Let me tell you, THAT LADY CAN SING OR AS WE SAY IN THE BUSINESS, SAAANG!!

Wow, what a voice and presence and this affiliate is in good hands with
people like her as its present and future.

Money is still coming in and it is my hope to have a final report or at
least as close to it as is possible  in a few weeks ideally, probably the
week of the 15th.

It has been a joy doing this and now let's head to Florida and have a lot of
fun and make a meaningful impact on the lives of as many blind and visually
impaired people as is possible.

Let me also add, that I really enjoyed attending the chapter meeting of the
NFB Of Cincinnati and I love their auction component of the meeting.

Thank you President Kendrick for attending the event along with several of
your chapter members and friends.
