Subject: [Ohio-talk] Greater Akron 1st Meeting

Hello Ohio Federationists, I'd like to share that our recently formed
Greater Akron Chapter held our first meeting yesterday (Tuesday). We met at
the Akron Blind Center, so let me give here a big thank you to the members
there, and Director Scott Reisberg, for their very warm welcome and
partnership!

We were joined for the meeting by State President Richard Payne, and
Cleveland President Suzanne Turner, both of whom adding insight to our
discussions. We also got a boost from Dr. Carolyn Peters who joined us by
phone. Thank you to these leaders our State is fortunate to have!

We established the Chapter on July 21 with eleven new members, and yesterday
we added ten more after a lively meeting, which included a Kenneth Jernigan
reading, updates on our State Convention, and the reading and passage of our
Chapter Constitution.

I'm excited to work with our board and all our members in serving our
community through the mission we all share as part of the NFB of Ohio.

So, now that you know us, if you know anybody in the Akron area, blind or
sighted, who might be interested in joining us, have them contact me at
330-472-4084 or NFB.Akron at gmail.com<mailto:NFB.Akron at gmail.com>

Thanks and see you in Strongsville!
Dave Bertsch
President, Greater Akron Chapter
National Federation of the Blind of Ohio
