The agenda is close to being finished, and preregistration will be open soon after a couple of last-minute details are finalized. Zoom will still be an option, but we hope as many of you can make it as possible. This will be our first convention together in three years and like the national convention, you won’t want to miss it! Below is a reminder of the details to book your hotel room. Do not delay, book your room today! Our room block and convention rates end August 19, 2022! More information around convention will be coming, so stay tuned!<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>Group Name: <b>National Federation of the Blind of Iowa<o:p></o:p></b></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>Group Code: <b>NFB<o:p></o:p></b></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>Reservations Deadline: <b> August 19, 2022<o:p></o:p></b></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>Rates: <b>Standard Two-Queen or King Executive $89++ plus 12% tax per night<o:p></o:p></b></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-size:12.0pt'> Junior King or Extended Suites $139++ plus 12% tax per night<o:p></o:p></span></b></p><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-size:12.0pt'> Family King Suites $159++ plus 12% tax per night<o:p></o:p></span></b></p><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-size:12.0pt'> Family Double Queen Suites $179++ plus12% tax per night<o:p></o:p></span></b></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>To Reserve: <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>Call us at: <b>515-278-4755 or 800-HOLIDAY (800-465-4329)<o:p></o:p></b></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>Click to: </span><b><span style='font-size:14.0pt'><a href="https://www.holidayinn.com/redirect?path=rates&brandCode=HI&localeCode=en®ionCode=1&hotelCode=DSMDU&checkInDate=08&checkInMonthYear=082022&checkOutDate=11&checkOutMonthYear=082022&numberOfAdults=1&numberOfChildren=1&numberOfRooms=1&_PMID=99801505&GPC=NFB&cn=no&viewfullsite=true"><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma",sans-serif;color:blue;background:#EEEEEE'>National Federation of the Blind of Iowa</span></a></span></b> <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'><span style='font-family:"Arial",sans-serif'>Scott Van Gorp, President<br>National Federation of the Blind of Iowa<br>Phone: 515-720-5282<br></span><a href="mailto:svangorp@nfbi.org"><span style='color:#0563C1'>Email</span></a><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><a href="http://www.nfbi.org/"><i><span style='font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#0563C1'>Website</span></i></a><i><span style='font-family:"Arial",sans-serif'> <br></span></i><a href="https://www.facebook.com/National-Federation-Of-the-Blind-Of-Iowa-372681823082570/posts"><i><span style='font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#0563C1'>Facebook</span></i></a><i><span style='font-family:"Arial",sans-serif'> <br></span></i><a href="https://twitter.com/nfb_iowa"><i><span style='font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#0563C1'>Twitter</span></i></a><i><span style='font-family:"Arial",sans-serif'> <br>Live the life you want.<br></span></i><br>The National Federation of the Blind of Iowa is a community of members and friends who believe in the hopes and dreams of the nation’s blind.
