[Central-md-chapter] Everyday Technology Fair May 1st NFB chapter meeting reminder

[Graham Mehl]

Hi All, 

Our next NFB chapter meeting on Tuesday, May 1st at 6:30 p.m. is fast
approaching. The Other Barn is located at 5851 Robert Oliver Pl, Columbia,
MD.

 

During the April meeting our guest speaker had to cancel and will be
re-schedule for some time in the fall. After the normal chapter business we
had a chapter team building event where we got to know about each other
more. 

 

Do not forget about the May 14th  Tino's fund raising event. Enjoy great
food and a portion of the sales for the entire day will be donated to the
NFB central Maryland chapter. No flier is needed.

 

 

The tentative agenda for the meeting is as follow:

Everyday Technology Fair
