> Hello chapter presidents,
>  
> Please be sure to send all the names phone numbers and email addresses to Megan Homrighausen no later than Friday May 24th.  If you have a member who is not able to pay via credit card, I would suggest that they settle up with the chapter during the June meetings.  Treasurers can send any money they collect to Donna.  
>  
> I will speak with the transportation committee and Donna to arrange a method to collect payment and pay Flix bus directly.

> Hello Federationists,
>  
>  
> The affiliate board has decided that using the Flix bus service will be our primary mode of transportation to and from the national convention in las Vegas, due to its cost-effectiveness and convenience.
> busses include bath-room, wifi, wheelchair accessibility and overhead compartments; however, nothing besides luggage can be taken, and schedules have been known to change somewhat.
> Since the reservations are being booked as a group, they need to be coordinated through a single point person, which is Megan Homrighausen.
> busses will leave on July 6th, and return on July 13th.
> departures on the 6th will be from Tucson at 10:05 am, Tempe at 11:45 and phoenix at 12:10 pm, arriving in las Vegas at 5:50 pm.
> returns on the 13th Buses depart las Vegas at 9:34 am, arriving in phoenix around 4 pm, Tempe around 4:30 and Tucson around 6:15.
> shuttles for the 7-mile trip from the flix depot to the mandalay bay hotel will also be arranged by the affiliate.
> as of May 11th, the total round-trip cost per person, including the shuttle, comes to 60 dollars.   All trips must be paid to the NFBA affiliate in advance.
>  
> These busses fill up quickly and fares are on the rise.   If you are planning on using the Flix bus please notify your chapter president no later than May 21st.   Please provide your name, phone number, and e-mail address.  A coordinating NFBA member will connect with you to obtain payment via credit card.  If you are not able to pay via card, please let your chapter president know.    
>  
>  
>  
> If these times don't work with your schedule, you can make reservations with Flix individually, which is best done by downloading their app to your smart-phone.
> The cost of an individual should be similar to those under a group, but individuals would need to arrange their own transportation from the Flix bus depot in Las Vegas to the convention hotel.
>  
> If you have any questions or concerns, please contact Megan Homrighausen at 480-510-6196, or email, megsvending at gmail.com.
