[Ohio-Talk] Answers to questions

[Patricia McPherson]

Barbara,
Thank you for checking on the information. I had left a message for JohnB and had sent a question in for the April presidential release, but I still have not heard back from anyone yet.

Thank you,
Pat McPherson

>> 1. Parking is going to be expensive at convention. At the hotel it is about $50 a night. We are working on finding some parking lot around the city that will be more reasonable. If and when we do so, we will be spreading word  far and wide. Some people are planning to park in long-term parking at the airport, which is more reasonable, but cars will be a pain to get hold of.

>> 2. The hotel will have hand-sanitizer stations around the facility, but we know of no plans to hand out sanitizer.
>> 
>> 3. Chapters and divisions are encouraged to mark their contribution checks clearly with their state as well as organizational name and sent them in before convention. Tell Richard as well what you are doing so that he has an idea of what is coming in from Ohio and can announce  in the Honor roll call how much is coming in from Ohio. They are trying to discourage having cash coming in at convention.

>> I will just add this reminder. Lorain County has already voted to send $50 to Todd to help defray the cost of door prizes from Ohio. We are usually almost the only chapter to do this. Don’t leave us alone in this support.

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