[Ohio-Talk] what an amazing state convention.

Dear Shane Popplestone:

Thanks, and please get ready to assist me and the rest of the leadership
with the very immediate work of the affiliate. 

To the membership you will receive more from me please understand that rest
has not started, and I am renewed.

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.

This message serves as both a test, and a note of congratulations to the
convention planning committee, for an amazing convention.
I had a great time in Independence this past weekend, and I hope you did to.
>From meeting people I'd only spoken to by phone, and meeting people I'd only
read e-mails from, to the general sessions, the division meetings,
boutiques, the exhibit hall, to spending time at the restaurant having a
meal with fellow federationists, and so much more, it was a great weekend.
at this convention, I was honored to be nominated and elected as your Ohio
association of blind students vice president for the 2022-2023 year.
I'll do my best to serve our students and the affiliate in the best way I
can this Year.
It was a pleasure to sit down and have drinks with our affiliate president,
and President payne, don't tell me know the next time I tell you drinks are
on me, got it? Because if you do, just like I did this weekend, I'll still
pay the bill. *grin*.
Congratulations to our past affiliate board, thank you for your service.
To our incoming affiliate  board members, both those re-elected and those
knew to the board, it'll be my pleasure to work with you not only in my
capacity as VP of OABS, but as a general member, to.
If we met this weekend and didn't exchange contact details for some reason,
simply shoot me an e-mail using the address in my signature, and we'll get
it straightened out.
Thanks all, and continue living the life you want!
