[Ohio-Talk] Final Call

[Suzanne Turner]

Ohio Members and Friends,

 

We are so, so very close to the event of the year in Ohio. 

 

Yes!

 

The National Federation of the Blind of Ohio 76th Annual Convention in
Independence Ohio is vastly approaching.

 

The Convention Planning Committee want to remind you that this coming
Friday, October 28th is the last day for preregistration. After that,
registration will begin and you will have to pay a higher cost for the
banquet as well at the door. The Greater Cuyahoga County Chapter will greet
us all early on November 4th at 9:00 AM.

 

Also, please donate goodies, water, soda, healthy snacks, paper products for
the hospitality room. Everyone is invited to partake of what is to be
offered between 5:30 to 8:30 PM on November 4th as well.

 

Additionally, we are seeking ambassadors from each Chapter to volunteer for
a number of duties. If you are willing to assist in this regard, please
email me off list. All outside volunteers are appreciated. So, if you have
friends or family members who would like to volunteer two to three hours of
their time, please email me with their contact information. I will be
meeting with them all next week.

 

Finally, please encourage all first-timers to attend the Rookie Roundup. I
have noticed that we have a vast number of participants attending the event
this year. This is so exciting. If you have never attended a convention in
person, you are a rookie. So, we will welcome you on Friday, November 4th
from 1:00 to 1:45 PM.

 

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out.

 

Thank you and we will see you soon!

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.
