Everyone knows the signature graduation theme song. So much so, you are
probably humming it right now!

Hmmmmm hmm hmm hmmm hmmmm hmmm,

Hmmmmm hmm hmm hmmm hmmmm hmmm?

The Happy Hour Crew knows that?s not the only memorable song from the year
you graduated. Which is why? NFB Ohio is having a class reunion!

Come share the popular jams the year you graduated from:

NFB training center

Military

Seminary

College

High school

Middle school

Elementary school

Or even kindergarten

Now, if you can remember what was hot on the radio when you were five years
of age? That would be impressive! As a matter of fact, we will honor you
with the virtual 2021 tassel of the night!

HAPPY HOUR! CLASS REUNION!

Dear Affiliate and Student Presidents,

I hope you all are looking forward to the long weekend ahead! It is
difficult to believe summer is upon us and convention is right around the
corner!

As we quickly approach June, our NFB students are coming to the end of a
school year like none other. We need your help in spreading the word about
our NABS Graduation, happening next Sunday June 6 at 7:00 PM eastern, to
celebrate those members coming to the end of a chapter in their education.
Please share this message far and wide and don't hesitate to reach out with
any questions.

Federationally Yours,
Trisha Kulkarni
President | National Association of Blind Students
A Proud Division of the National Federation of the Blind
www.nabslink.org <http://www.nabslink.org> 

Dear Students,

As we reach the end of May, congratulations are in order for all of our NABS
members for the incredible determination you put forward during this crazy,
unexpected year! We in NABS know that the road of virtual learning has not
always been easy, but we hope that you take the time to appreciate the many
steps forward you have made in your academic journey and beyond.

For some among us, this spring marks an extra special milestone that we want
to celebrate, graduation! Last year, we had a NABS Graduation due to many
ceremonies being canceled or moved online, and it was a wonderful experience
to commemorate our accomplishments as a community. We are thrilled to
announce that we will be carrying on the tradition on June 6 at 7:00 PM EST.

For our graduates, make sure you fill out this form by June 5 to be
recognized during the call:
https://forms.gle/zzfczXyDATLBwPoZ7

For other students, parents, and allies, all are welcome and encouraged to
join us as we celebrate the Class of 2021! The Zoom information is as

The National Federation of the Blind knows that blindness is not the
characteristic that defines you or your future. Every day we raise the
expectations of blind people, because low expectations create obstacles
between blind people and our dreams. You can live the life you want;
blindness is not what holds you back.

Hello everyone,

Hope my email finds you all doing well.

I would like to inform you that our brother and friend, Owen McCafferty, had
his surgery today and everything went fine. I did talk to him and he is
doing great. He does need sometime to recover, though.

Please keep him in your thoughts and prayers. If you have time, please give
him a call or text him.

Thanks and have a great day.

Thanks so much for the call and thanks for the thiughts and prayers. The out patient procedure to remove a suspicious mole on my back went well. I should know in a week or so with the results of the biopsy. Thanks
Owen
